I think it’s unfair to call it a Xenophobic country. But they do have xenophobic policy makers in government.

in Thailand, once on Sukhumvit and the other on Rachatewi, the kind policeman has allowed me to pay directly and avoid all that pesky paperwork.

well I managed to claim successfully on mine, without a Thai license. I guess I just got lucky as it was with included with Toyota when I Bligh the car.

Can see how that’s an issue though, good point.

in 15 years I’ve only had a few. Usually Thais given paperwork and sent to the police station. Foreigners asked if they want a receipt, nope, drop the cash and on your way.

In theory you will need to get a Thai license after 3 months.

But in practice the most important thing is 500b in cash for when the police want lunch.

yea they are pretty bad too. Better to go after lunch as none of them will help you if they’re hungry. Still beats being sent down the stairs over and over at CW for another copy.
