Test is simple, drive out of the center, then back in again and stop the bike!

you only fail the test if you DO NOT put your helmet on BEFORE you get on the bike or take it OFF before you have got OFF the bike

Oh and if you dont make it back into the test centre ie crash outside :shock: :shock: :D :D :cheers: :thumb:

The written test comprises a multiple choice questionnaire.

They give you a driving code booklet to study for about an hour, then a test after.

When I did mine, the few that got some parts wrong were given their papers back, told what the correct answers was, and changed the answers on the paper and re-submitted them.

All booklets, questionnaires etc can be supplied in English.

As Sargant said, it’s almost impossible to fail.

The test for a car driving licence is almost as easy.

The only difficult part is making sure you have all the correct paperwork to apply for the actual licence in the first place. Very convoluted and a lot of running around.

You can get or update your driver license(s) in Pranburi or in Cha Am.
You have to choose where you want to go.

I tried this but they wouldn't let me do it as I have no provision for motorbikes on my UK license and couldn't be arsed to wait around for 3 hours to do the test.

You'll find that your full car licence for the UK allows you to provisionally drive other vehicles, one of which is a motorbike. They don't understand the word provisional (driving with an 'L' plate) here so pointing to that section worked a treat!
