Pol Maj-Gen Adul Narongsak, deputy commissioner of the MPU in charge of traffic affairs, said Tuesday that the plans include updating information about vehicles expected to enter Thailand from Asian member countries by coordinating with the Land Transport and Customs departments.
He said that foreign motorists will have their driving licences checked and tickets in English issued in case of traffic violations.

He, however, insisted that local and foreign motorists would be equally treated and equally punished if they break the law.
