Traffic Police

A lot of people in ChiangMai  who ride bikes don't wear helmets or have a licence .  In order to at least get people to wear helmets and tourists to have licenses and insurance the police have started to regularly  pull people over.  The fine is 200baht.  I was spotted taking this shot, but the cop who saw me just gave me a big smile.

As it is also FlowerFriday I have added extras of the beautiful flowers that decorate the wooden foot bridge over the moat.

I am also going to add a shot of a huge butterfly that I saw on the way to Chiang Rai.   The wing span was as big as my hand span.
