Car Rental Terms & Conditions

Rental cars

Chiang Rai - Car Rental You can rent a car via Thaitraveldreams. We book all cars with Avis, an internationally renowned car rental company, using the same rates and conditions as Avis. All cars are well maintained and have safety belts, airconditioning and a radio with CD or cassette player.

Important to know are the following things. Cars in Thailand drive on the left side of the road. Roads in Thailand are not everywhere equally well maintained and the driving style of the Thai is somewhat less structured than in western Europe, north America or Australia. This requires you to be extra attentive and alert, especially after sunset when it is dark. Roads can have big holes that do not have advance warning signs or protection. Cows, dogs and other animals can suddenly cross the road. Motor vehicles can drive without their lights on. Traffic rules and legislation in Thailand can be different from your own country and traffic rules are not followed by everyone. The right of way is frequently taken by vehicles who drive the fastest or are the biggest, even if they are not entitled to it. Trucks and buses can overtake others in curves, hills and other places with limited view. Don't get angry, just be alert and drive defensive. The Thai won't change their driving style anyway and your main objective is to drive without accidents and return home safely. Make sure that you can stop at any moment within the distance that is free and can be overseen. Adapt your speed accordingly. Overtake with care. Be extra alert and use common sense. Generally: drive as defensive as possible and preferrably more than that. Even in spite of these warning words, you will find that driving in Thailand is fun.
