Three Russian tourists injured in bus crash in Krabi

By Thai PBS

 

 

Three Russian tourists were injured when a tour coach crashed into a roadside tree at Tambon Khao Kram in Krabi’s Muang district early on Friday (March 16).

 

The tour bus was on its way from Phuket to Krabi international airport with 36 Russian tourists on board.

 

The bus driver Rachen Sawaengsook told police that as he was driving on the Phetkasem Highway, heading for the airport, he saw three motorcycles racing each other on the same traffic lanes. One motorcycle instantly cut into his way, forcing him to swerve to the left.

So matter of fact, hardly worth commenting on any more. Everyone knows the solution and no one cares to do anything about it.

So he saw them racing did not think of the danger probably did not slow down and when one motorcycle cut into his path he swerved to avoid the motorcycle and hit a tree.  Sounds like he could have avoided the incident completely by just slowing down.

Was it really a bus crash or those pesky Russian infiltrators trying to kill of their ex-spies again ?
