Bangkok is a huge city that was designed for less than < 1,000,000 cars. As of September 2024, there were over 12,000,000 registered cars in Bangkok.
Despite a world class transportation system (BTS and MRT), Bangkok is still one of the most congested cities in the world and it appears it keeps getting worse.
Depending on where you stay in Bangkok and the time of day or night, be prepared to waste a ton of time stuck in traffic.
There are areas and times in the early evening that should be avoided at all costs!
