webfact Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 School bus drivers warned to look out for problems in troubled southern Thai province Picture: Manager Online Song thaew drivers who deliver children to schools in Narathiwat have been warned by their association to be on the lookout. Manager reporters went to one of the province's biggest downtown religious schools Attankiya Islam Miya after a number of accidents in the area. The school has 4,000 pupils from M1 to M6 (secondary level)) mostly brought in by song thaew buses from outlying areas. One driver Makeuta Awekadae, 56, said that the association he is part of had conducted training of all drivers to "be aware of incidents". He said they were doing their best to ensure the safety of school children with drivers having been trained in road craft and vehicle road worthiness courses. The advisories seemed to be related to road accidents but at least 6,500 people have died in the insurgency troubles in recent years in the southern border provinces.

Ok so before this these drivers were not trained in "road craft." (what is road craft anyway?) They also received training in vehicle road worthiness courses. Super, they are mechanics also. Is this planet earth? Can someone pinch me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I think they are telling the drivers to be watchful for road side bombs, as the jerks that set them are not too fussy of who they kill. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
