CDS is not a major crime is it ?? In Australia your police record ( conviction s) are spent after 10 years if you have no more convictions. Look up how long your record remains open in you country or state….yours it over 13 years ago ….forget about it !
That bowl of Thai coins might add up to 1000 to 2000 bhat max at a guess ??… $40 to $80 aud and you need it to help your mother ??? Don’t think that’s going to do much in the USA
really…?I’ve been driving around when on many visits there since 2004… pulled over for checks by police at least 4 or 5 times …. Never had a thai license … just an international drivers permit ( which they didn’t seem to know about) and my Aussie license…. Never been find…. You don’t need a thai license unless you live their full time !?why did the cops laugh at you ? Or did you make that up !!!
