I got a 5$ ticket for no helmet, no licence or id on me.. the cop took my keys till I went and paid the fine.. I didn't trust leaving him my bike so I gave him my FAKE watch lol and went back to my hotel to get money and paid the fine.. the cop than returned to the police station and gave me my watch back... that was in phuket. in chiang mai there was three of us on a bike all with no helmets and big bottle of beers in our hands crossing a police line and they just allowed us through while stopping the thais..
I always felt like I could do whatever I wanted, cops never did shit, had trouble with a white dude in the bar throwing shit at a waitress, he than punches a thai friend, i get in the middle and my friend smashes a bottle over his head and throws him down the stairs and he gets kick out.. upon leaving that night this guy is still outside with the cops and he comes chasing us, I heaped him sending him flying on his ass, and the cops didnt do shit. now If i was starting shit with a thai, not only would i have a group of them jumping on me, the cops would get involved.
