Renting a car in Bangkok?
I am going to Thailand for 26 weeks from October 6, now I would like to rent a car for a week or 2. Where (preferably near Bangkok) is the best place to rent a car? Does anyone know a reliable car rental company where you can rent a car at a reasonable price with good insurance, etc.?
Renting a car in Bangkok?

Reader question: Renting a car in Thailand
As soon as the weather is allowed, we hope to visit family in Thailand again. But this time I want to rent a car from the airport to be nice and mobile and to be able to delight everyone with a visit in a short time. But what if I drive damage? Is there a claim form that must be completed, just like in the Netherlands? And what if there were also casualties? How do I reach the police?
Experiences of renting a car at Udon Thani airport
I want to rent a car at Udon Thani airport, but that's my first time doing so. Who has done this before and what are the experiences? There are various providers such as Hertz, Budget, Sixt and Europcar, which one is the best/cheapest? Are there any other things I should pay attention to? Hints?
Can I have my Dutch driving license translated into Thai?
I am no longer resident in the Netherlands and now registered in Spain. Do have Dutch BSN, NL passport and NL driving license and go to Thailand in 2 weeks. I want to rent a car there. Don't get an international driver's license in time (Spanish authorities say they won't have time until January 2019!). Thai embassy/consulate etc cannot help. ANWB does not issue anything because we are no longer registered in the Netherlands.
I have been coming to Thailand for many years now. Usually 1 or 2 times a year for 30 days. Once I stayed there for 2 consecutive months. Now next year I will (finally) retire and we (my love and I) want to spend the winter there for a period of 4 months.
I will rent a car on my next trip to Thailand. Now I can buy a good dashcam cheaply in the Netherlands. Does it make sense to drive such a thing in Thailand? I mean, suppose you get into an accident, do the recordings count as evidence for the police?
I'm going on holiday to Thailand this summer with my girlfriend and her 11-year-old daughter. The intention is that we enjoy a top holiday for three weeks in Thailand. The first two weeks we travel north from Bangkok and end in Hua Hin for a beach holiday of about 5 days.
