Excuse me, is it suitable to rent a car to play in Bangkok? I'm afraid it's too congested or hard to find a parking space ?

Bangkok is cheap to take a taxi, but the traffic is often congested and it is not suitable to rent a car.

The traffic is too heavy, it's hard to park, the road is also complicated. Sometimes when I take a taxi, I have to give the driver directions.

When driving in the outskirts of Bangkok, my average speed is only around 10 kilometers per hour. It's probably even slower in the city center. That's why I think the rail transit is more reliable. The main problem is the long queues and waiting at traffic lights, which waste a lot of time. The only good thing is that I can enjoy the air conditioning while stuck in traffic, so at least I'm not stressed out like in China, where people constantly cut in line, change lanes in all sorts of ways, and rush through intersections.

Riding a motorbike for travel is more convenient.

Simply playing in Bangkok is not recommended.

Bangkok, taking a boat + light rail + garb combination is convenient and fast!

Is it necessary to rent a car in Bangkok? I see that many scenic spots are in Bangkok, unless you go to nearby places. It's a bit far to drive to Chiang Mai and Phuket.

Could you guys please give me some advice? We are planning to go in a group of 7. After checking the available cars, if all 7 seats are occupied, it seems like there won't be much space left in the trunk. However, we are worried that with a C1 license, we might not be allowed to drive a 10-seater car. We would like to ask some friends who are familiar with this, is it okay to drive a 10-seater car with a C1 license? Or which 7-seater car has more space ? Thailand Q&A

It seems that everyone misunderstood my meaning. What I meant is that can I only pick up the car at the airport? Because I just want to rent a car for a day in the middle, and it's really inconvenient to pick up and return the car at the airport. Are there any pick-up locations around the ancient city or Nimman Road ? Thailand Q&A

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
