Got my thai license in 30 mins, not days, as already noted, read out some colours, sat in front of a little box and pulled some string until i got 2 sticks in line, then sat at a home made wooden PS 1 driver control, when the redlight came on hit what i assumed was the break and hay presto 1 thai license, and the gave me the bike license as well. Medical fees apart for the 2 came to 350B.
Despite having a few bikes and a full uk bike license i will not travel on 2 wheels here, always like the protection of the pickup..
As a confirmed biker i never thought i'd hear myself say that.
Were i live, if i see tourist walking i stop and offer them a lift and explain how dangerous it is on thai roads.
