same is for alcohol and wild driving... 

wild driving = no license and no idea but fast...

And the winner is the debt system...

if u lucky u might find a thai who does not speed driving with 2 promilles or filled up with yaba ...u also might find one who does not gamble regularly ( all tough i think this is pretty impossible ) you never will find a thai who is not indebted at least two times his worth....

 

but in LOS the rule is ma ben rai
