Motorcycle or scooter renters beware
Police in Pattaya do have several roadblocks and they do stop mostly foreigners regardless of color and age. They issue tickets for no reason. Matter of fact there are some foreigners among them and they are also part of the scam. If you don't want to spend your time in the police station to pay the fine and try to recover your documents, avoid renting vehicles in Pattaya. Fines are about 400 bath. Not a big deal but waiting to recover your documents is a nuisance.
My story, in two days I received two tickets. One for they did not like my AAA International license, even it was all current and legitimate with the right endorsements and second one was for stoping for few seconds at a no parking zone. For both tickets, I had to wait around 2 hours each times.
