Will EV cars pay for this congestion charge!

😂😂

If they follow London as an example yes it a congestion charge for the central area not a pollution charge  London has a pollution charge on top of the congestion charge where I believe EVs are exempt.

I've tried the airport way, takes ages to find a parking spot in short term parking, then 250 baht for the privilege.

 

I just looked at the Samrong option, driving time plus train journey actually adds time to my journey even in traffic. 20 baht is neither here or there but a 50 baht congestion charge over a 70 baht parking fee......

 

Looks like i will be sticking to the car for the near future.

 

Appreciate the tips though, never really looked at it this closely.


Ultimately - this is why we nearly always just drive - the added time at each end getting to & from the BTS stations make it not worth it for us…
