Many Thaipeople do not care much about traffic laws.
Helmets are required and You have to own a driving license,
if You want to drive a motorcycle in Thailand.
At several times a day and also at night
the Thai police is establishing checkpoints to control the traffic.
If You are not wearing a helmet, You will be stopped by the police of Thailand,
even if You´re a foreigner (farang) and You have to pay a fine for the delict.

    Actually the reason you should wear a helmet is that it could potentially save your life or serious injury. It’s a safety issue and the police officers have a duty to enforce this law.
    Traffic police are not setting up these check points just so they can give you a hard time.
