Orac Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Wrong forum me thinks - but, yes, you do drive on the left in Thailand. Not sure why you would find this hard to believe as there are only really 2 options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bifftastic Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) It's true, well mostly you will find some motorcycles coming at you on the wrong side of the road but just ignore them Why would you find it hard to believe by the way? Thailand is one of the countries that didn't switch to the other side of the road, there are plenty of others too http://en.wikipedia....ft-hand_traffic just spotted which forum you posted in Edited November 13, 2010 by bifftastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong gentlemen. China - right Hong Kong - Left Japan - Left Philippines - Right Laos - right Cambodia - right Vietnam - right Malaysia - Left Indo - left Anyways, follow the link the other guy posted, it gives a pretty good map of what is going on.

phaethon Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Actually they drive on any side they want too. I went to New Delhi last year. After a 30 minute drive from the airport I was 60% sure they drove on the left. It took about three days until I was about 90% sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
