One of the fastest and most convenient ways to get around Thailand is by motorbike taxi, and Grab isn’t the only option. The Department of Land Transport (DLT) recommends ordering a motorbike taxi (“Win”) safely and legally using six mobile applications.

 

The DLT has certified six applications providing motorbike taxi services so far, reports BangkokBizNews…

 

  1. Hello Phuket Service
  2. Bonku
  3. Asia Cab
  4. Robinhood
  5. Grab
  6. AirAsia Superapp

 

The list suggests that the popular ride-hailing app Bolt, often providing cheaper rides than Grab, is not certified by the DLT as a safe and legal option.

 

Sometimes, motorbike taxi drivers ordered through an app might be wearing an orange jacket if they also work as public motorbike taxi drivers. However, not all will be wearing one.

I think I'll give the Robinhood one a miss... just  a gut feeling.
