There is 1 day to go which is tomorrow 3rd Jan. Jimn please do what you tell others to do and keep up because day 5 figures and the adjustments for days 1, 2, 3, and 4 were released earlier today. Go back and look at my post which has the comparison for 2015, 2016 and this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s not only Thailand where there is a problem on the roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this holiday a safer one due to lower fatalities or is there something we are missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have misunderstood but I spent 9 hours on the roads this weekend and my observation was that much more people had their helmet on than "normal days". The average speed was lower among the cars. I do hope they continue this way. Yes, far from every checkpoint was open. However that is good too show how many there are. If I go from home to a party and pass all those unattended checkpoints, would I take a chans and drink all night long and driving home, hoping that those checkpoints were still unattended?

And after that they took down the cones? interesting. I passed a couple of provinces and there where loads of checkpoints. Not everyone open though. Nevertheless they are there and you'll never know when they open. If you go to your friend for a drinking party and you'll pass a couple of checkpoints, would you take the chance to drive home in the night? The more checkpoints (attended or not) the better.

LOL. I think that I would prefer to work on the figures that are released each day up until the 7 days the same as the figures were done on all previous years back to 2010 Did you purposely misunderstand? or trolling? every year people die after the 7 day count period got it?

Go back and look at my post which has the comparison for 2015, 2016 and this year I was commenting on someone questioning the maths before you provided day 5 figures. As my comment was based on the OP before you provided these figures it makes your post quoting me irrelevant. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell17au Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Here are the figures for day 6 plus the updates for the previous 5 days Here is a breakdown and a comparison that I have done of the road carnage figures on a daily basis with a comparison total for the 7 days. Please note, all deaths are recorded regardless of whether it happened at the scene of the accident or not. If someone died a few days later in hospital, they are added to the tally, as long as it is within the so-called “7 dangerous days”. The information for this has been acquired from several source's including MSN, The National, Bangkok Post, ThaiVisa News and Richard Barrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
