🚐 A Day in the Life of a MoriTour Driver
Waking up before dawn, MoriTour drivers begin with a careful vehicle inspection: tyre pressure, brakes, engine fluids and electronics are checked and the VIP van is washed, polished and sanitised moritour.com. They plan routes taking traffic, weather and client preferences into account, then greet guests with a warm smile and a bottle of water moritour.com. Throughout the day they navigate Bangkok’s busy streets, countryside highways and border roads with the calm assurance of professionals who do more than drive – they take care of people moritour.com.
🛣️ Safety First
Thailand’s government recognises road safety as a serious public health issue. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Thailand recorded a road traffic death rate of 25.4 per 100,000 people in 2021, one of the highest in Asia who.int. WHO estimated about 18,218 road traffic deaths that year – roughly 50 per day – and 83.8 % involved motorcyclists who.int. To address this, authorities launched a Road Safety Directing Center and “Save driving, without accidents” campaign during festive periods. Measures include improving roads, ensuring safe vehicles, enforcing drunk‑driving laws and offering tourist police hotlines thailand.prd.go.th. The WHO aims to help Thailand reduce deaths to 12 per 100,000 by 2027 who.int.
Visitors who drive themselves should follow local guidelines: drive on the left, carry an international licence, obey speed limits, avoid night travel and stay alert for motorbikes autourasia.com. Respectful driving also means patience, courtesy and awareness of local customs. These rules are similar in neighbouring Cambodia and Laos, where roads can be chaotic and motorbikes are common. Practising mindfulness behind the wheel reflects the Buddhist value of ahimsa (non‑harm) shared across the region.
🤝 Caring Beyond Driving
MoriTour drivers treat each journey as a cultural exchange. Many of them grew up in border provinces, so they effortlessly switch between Thai, Lao or Khmer greetings. On the way to Ayutthaya or the Cambodian border, they share stories about Theravada Buddhism, Songkran and Chaul Chnam Thmey water festivals that symbolise purification and renewal across Thailand, Cambodia and Laos en.wikipedia.org. They also offer practical tips: carry cash for rural tolls, stay hydrated in the heat, and respect sacred sites by dressing modestly.
