6 min·2026-05-16

At the scene

1. Move to a safe place; call 1669 ambulance if injured

2. Police: 191 — report required if damage exceeds ~1,000 THB

3. Photos (all angles, plates, documents)

4. Notify Thailand Moto Rent on WhatsApp immediately

Insurance

Without a police report, full claim is difficult. Premium insurance speeds up the process.
