Four people died and two others are in a serious condition after an accident near the Ban Don Jaeng intersection in Suphanburi this morning.

 

A pick-up driven by 31 year old Jirakit Sapwattanaphaisan slammed into the back of a municipal water truck.

 

Jirakit from Song Phi Nong district was killed at the scene along with Niwat Simmarong and an unnamed woman.

 

Aphisit Sonthat aged 22 was dead on arrival at the hospital.

 

Two more were gravely injured.

 

The driver is believed to have fallen asleep at the wheel after a night out.

 

The accident scene is on Route 321.

Or perhaps had been partaking in the old Liquid Courage. The appalling statistics relating to Thai road safety continue to escalate. R.I.P.
