The streets in Krabi and throughout coastal cities in Thailand tend to suit smaller cars more than larger ones. However, the type of car you choose depends mostly on your needs. It'll be easier to navigate traffic in a compact model, but if you're travelling with a larger family or group of friends, SUVs are a popular car hire choice in Krabi. If you're there during the dry season, consider a convertible to enjoy the sights. Make sure your hired car has sufficient air conditioning, since Krabi can be humid.

The speed limits in Krabi are the same as throughout Thailand and will need to be obeyed throughout the country. If you're driving inside the city and built-up areas, you'll be limited to 60 km/h, while the highways allow speeds up to 100 km/h. Bear in mind that many locals won't stick to these rules, but you'll need to. You won't find many drivers going faster than 60 km/h in the cities, because traffic doesn't allow for it, but motorcycles will often exceed that. On highways, anything goes with local drivers.

There are places to park all over Krabi and many of them don't require payment. There's a large number of on-street parking spots available in the city, and there seem to be few rules dictating where you can and can't park. If you're going to a shopping centre, there's usually underground parking, some of them paid and some of them not. If you're staying at a hotel, look for one with on-site parking to avoid leaving your vehicle on the street overnight.
