At Big Bike Rental Bangkok, we prioritize the safety and well-being of our customers. Whether exploring Thailand or venturing into neighboring countries like Cambodia and Laos, you must know the unique challenges and precautions for riding in these destinations. Here are some essential tips to ensure a safe and enjoyable riding experience:
Thailand: Navigating the Land of Smiles
Route Planning with Google Maps
When riding in Thailand, using Google Maps can be extremely helpful to navigate the roads. It provides accurate route options, and with the help of our phone holders with USB charging, they can make life so much easier. Just make sure to turn off the tollways under the route options. In Thailand, you cannot ride on tollways with your motorbikes.
To prevent any confusion or accidents, it's important to remember that traffic in Thailand drives on the left-hand side of the road. To ensure a safe and smooth journey, take some time to familiarize yourself with this driving orientation.
While riding a motorcycle in Thailand, carrying an International Driving License along with your domestic driving license is highly recommended. This will be recognized and accepted proof of your riding competency, reducing potential legal complications during your trip or in case of an accident.
Travel and Liability Insurance
To protect yourself against any unforeseen situations, it is advisable to have both travel insurance and liability insurance. Travel insurance will cover medical emergencies and other travel-related incidents, while liability insurance provides additional protection in case of any damages caused to third parties. Such precautions will give you peace of mind and ensure a worry-free trip.
Breakdown Assistance and Customer Support
In the unlikely event of a breakdown or any other issues with your rental motorcycle, Big Bike Rental Bangkok has you covered. You can simply call our hotline, and our professional team will assist you promptly. With our own service fleet and a network of motorbike dealers throughout the country, reliable support is readily available to help you get back on track.
Cambodia and Laos: Riding Beyond Borders
Spare Parts and Roadside Repairs
When riding in Cambodia and Laos, it's essential to be aware that finding spare parts for motorcycles can be challenging. While some roadside motorbike repair shops may not have all the necessary parts, they can typically fix minor issues that may arise during your road trip. Carrying a basic tool kit and spare parts can prove handy in such situations.
In Cambodia and Laos, road conditions can be rough and unpredictable, especially in more rural areas. It's crucial to exercise caution and adapt your riding style to the changing conditions. Be prepared for potholes, uneven surfaces, and potentially hazardous terrain. Additionally, be extra cautious when navigating the mountain ranges, as some trucks may not stay in their lanes during turns.
While riding in Cambodia and Laos may present some unique challenges, the breathtaking landscapes, charming villages, and cultural experiences you’ll encounter make it all worthwhile. By being prepared and vigilant, you can have a fulfilling and safe riding adventure.
