I've heard that the road to Bangkok from the South are flooded by the recent rainfalls. Tomorrow I need to drive towards Bangkok and would like to know if the road is practically safe or should I cancel the trip.
Thanks a lot!

Difficult to say for sure as the situation changes all the time. This morning, I drove from Tung Song (Nakhorn si Tamarat) to Hat Yai without flooded roads (we did have enormous amounts of rain coming down though) and it seems the storm causing most of the rains is moving up north.
Your best bet is listening on local radio broadcasts to get an idea of the current situation. Of course, you'll need to be able to speak (Southern) Thai or have your partner check for you. #3

Thanks for the info. That's exactly what we did and we heard that the road to Bangkok is flooded as from Phatthalung, causing my wife worrying as we're bringing our little boy with us.

My wife's granddaughter cannot get home because of flooding at Lang Suan, the river coming down from Phato has broken its banks again at Lang Suan, could take a few days to clear if this rain doesn't ease.
