Driver could not understand, nor able to read English which is not a problem, but when I showed her my booking with my name on it, she pointed me to taxi drivers to go to Khao Sok even though she was standing there with my name on the paper and I indicated that it was my name on the paper, yet she still could not understand and so I was overalled confused that maybe I had a different driver. The person in charge had to come and let me know that that woman was my driver and he seemed annoyed as if it was obvious that she was my driver, but with the language barrier, it was not. She was apologetic though, and I arrived safely.

The ride was very pleasant and everything worked perfectly. We had a very friendly and punctual driver who even offered us free water. The car was also very comfortable and air-conditioned.

OK but driver rather distracted on the phone. Not dangerous because she slowed down while in the phone but slow going.
