Gweiloman Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 What do you all think would be the busiest days on the roads over the Songkran festival? Monday, 09th April is a bank holiday but the next three days are working days before it all starts on Friday, 13th April. Will the roads be very busy as well, say on Tuesday, 10th April?

moe666 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I would advise getting an early start and stopping about noon. Being a holiday it is the booze that is the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't have reached my destination by noon. But as I'll be well out of Bkk, I guess it should be a bit better, especially if they continue to stay in drinking.

Thaddeus Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 For some reason the busiest road during Songkran tends to be whichever one I'm on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJohnnyBKK Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I always try to leave Bangkok between 2am and 5am, but during drunkathons would probably advise shifting that from 4am-7am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gers1873 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 There is no good time to be on the roads during the Drunkathong. Only 'less bad' times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawapower Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Don't drive the bike during Songkran unless you enjoy the odd bucket of water containing ice cubes thrown in your face!! never happened to me but I saw a guy in front of me nearly lose control of his bike, luckily no accident!!
