PHUKET: Phuket Governor Norraphat Plodthong has ordered officials to conduct a comprehensive review of the road accidents and the traffic fines issued during the Songkran Seven Days of Danger road-safety campaign, which concluded at midnight last night.

 

The review is aimed at inspiring new, more effective strategies for reducing the number people killed and injured on Phuket’s roads, Governor Norraphat told a meeting at Provincial Hall yesterday (April 17).

 

The order pre-empted Department of Disaster Prevention & Mitigation (DDPM-Phuket) announcing its final official daily report for the Seven Days campaign this morning (April 18).

More photo op, finger pointing, and hot air.

 

Solution is better driver training and real police enforcement. Not just infrequent road checks. Actually chasing a violator (speeding, red light runner, weaving, etc) would be good.

Yep, instead they will find improved ways to manipulate the road statistics during these 'Brains Trust' initiative campaigns :coffee1:
