In 19, we drove from Bangkok to Pattaya, Koh Chang, and Trat by ourselves. We were only stopped by the traffic police when we went from Koh Chang to Trat. We couldn't speak Thai, so we showed them the translation of our driver's license and they let us go.

Chinese people, listen to me, don't go to the Fantasia Park. It has nothing to do with children, your kids won't like it. Strange performances combining gymnastics, magic, jumping, lowb's pastoral scenery, chaotic wars to grab women, and chickens, sheep, cows, and elephants. I think they are thinking too much, they actually don't allow phones to be brought into the theater, and we can't even get any shots worth taking. Overall, Fantasia is a misunderstanding. You thought it was a children's paradise, but it turned out to be a stall outside your neighborhood park where you can make balloons. You thought there was a large-scale performance that would shock you, but it turned out to be a pot of mixed-up mess that hurts your eyes, ears, and nose. After 10 minutes, you will understand why the park requires you to stay until the end for the complete experience. Listen to me, don't go. If you can get a refund for the tickets, do it ?

I think there should be no problem renting a car in Thailand. I got fined twice, and the police didn't even ask for my license. They just took my passport, wrote down the passport number, and collected the fine. They didn't even check if I had a license. The prepared translation documents were not used ? Thailand Q&A
