    from field testing the yellow wand at a work site , it seemed that 0.02 and above was when they light up yellow/orange - I am not sure if the thai coppers would then take you away , or if you have to light up the red LED
    Where is Ban Kraut ?
    Alcohol test in the morning ? Never seen this !
    As long as they don't test weed, I am ok 555

    There are loads of groups on the Line app in service where they put up the locations of road blocks to alert fellow drunk drivers

    Thappraya - Thepprasit intersection is a hot spot lately. They set-up there almost daily now, mornings and afternoons during the week and evenings on weekends.

    Drunks chatting on LINE while driving! What could possibly go wrong?

    It used to be the thing in the RSA (Returned Services Association.. RSL in Oz and VSA In Blighty?) to ring the club when you got home if you came across a checkpoint, and the club would announce where it was over the PA.
    They (rightly) don't do that anymore, as it's a simple fact: the club should not be encouraging drunk driving.

    ^ I think you need to either be invited or create your own group.
    Those groups only take 500 members and fill pretty quick

    Of course they do. Country RSAs are still known for it.As are country pubs.

    Was in one last week after a Funeral....and we got the call.

    Bogon Tip #593 (*disclaimer included)

    If late at night and are driving home after having one too many. Open Google Maps and punch in your route home. If there is a small red line showing a wee traffic delay, then it is either a traffic light or the cops stopping people.

    * If it is the police, then I hope you get caught for drink driving.
    Black diamonds? I shit 'em.
