The Essential Thailand Driver’s Handbook

Improve your driving and stay safe on the road in Thailand with this indispensable colour guide book. With information on road signs, road markings, junctions, traffic signs, documentation, road tax, insurance, driving test and more, this is essential reading for all drivers – not just those learning to drive.

As road users, we all use road signs every day. They guide and direct us, instruct us and protect us as we travel by car, motorbike, bicycle and on foot. Even experienced drivers need to review the Thai traffic signs and this book is the ideal companion to do so. We cover information signs, warning signs, regulatory signs, speed limit signs, roadwork signs, railway crossing signs, bus and cycle signs, pedestrian zone signs, direction signs, signs for cyclists and pedestrians, information signs, and many more.

Buying, selling, registering and using a car in Thailand brings some responsibilities. We explain all about vehicle inspections, road tax, insurance, vehicle registrations, and a whole lot more.

Every day on the roads of Thailand, accidents and emergencies happen without warning. This book gives practical advice for those driving situations we all hope will never happen.

We show you how to prepare and pass the Thai car or motorcycle driving test, with all the latest theory questions included with answers. Most people fail their driving test because they are not prepared. This book will help the learner, and anyone helping someone learn to drive, by explaining the standard required for each key skill examined within the driving test.
