cavanami 577 Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Just heard on the TV Thai News, that people 72 years old and older, can no longer drive a motor vehicle, specifically they mentioned cannot drive a car or truck. Will this be enforced? Link to post Share on other sites
khunsanuk 345 Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Hi, Not heard about this yet, but considering this is a Thai traffic law, I assume it will be enforced as much as all the other Thai traffic laws - not at all. Sanuk! Link to post Share on other sites

Sanuk! I have many questions regarding this new "law"...for Thais only? will an international license get around this law? etc, etc, etc... Link to post Share on other sites

Mekong 710 Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 You are a braver man than me, my Mrs nearly gave me Heart Attack driving a Golf Buggy at Ancient City. I stopped driving in Thailand circa 2010, When I work it is outside of Thailand and I find it easier / cheaper to grab a cab, BTS or MRT. If I was to work in Thailand or move out of Bangkok it may be different. Link to post Share on other sites
zzzz 40 Posted December 19, 2020 Report Share Posted December 19, 2020 I gave up driving last year. Too much hassle. I will get another car when they develop a reliable fully autonomous car, the kind that you only have to give the address of the destination, and it does the rest. I will probably be dead before it’s developed. Link to post Share on other sites
