What is the traffic in Thailand, left-hand or right-hand?

In Thailand, traffic is left-hand. This means that the steering wheel of a car or motorcycle is on the right side, and traffic flows on the left lane. Tourists from countries with right-hand traffic (Russia, Europe, USA) need to get used to this, especially at intersections and when turning.

Here are a few key points to know about road traffic in Thailand:

• Driving style: Thais are very experienced drivers with quick reactions, but they often drive slowly and maneuver skillfully. Do not try to copy their driving style.
• Safety: Thailand ranks among the top in the world for road fatalities (about 15,000 people per year). Be extremely cautious, especially on a motorcycle.
• Aggression: Despite the stereotype of friendliness, aggressive drivers are encountered on the roads. Avoid conflicts, as they can escalate into serious altercations.
• Signs: Road signs in Thailand differ from Russian ones, so it is worth studying them at least briefly before traveling.
