PHUKET:-- Kamala Police today confirmed that there were no injuries after a pickup truck collided with a tour bus heading in the opposite direction on a tight curve overlooking Laem Singh on Phuket’s east coast road.

 

The accident occurred at about 8am yesterday (Jan 8), Capt Jarat Laemphan of the Kamala Police told The Phuket News today.

 

The bus, operating for Anex Tours, had picked up its Russian passengers in Kamala and was en route to Phang Nga when the accident happened, Capt Jarat explained.

Easy understand how that happened. Drivers here always cut across lines on bends.

That road, like many others on the island, is simply not suitable for big buses.

Russian tour bus, or tour bus with Russian tourists?

Did the Russian Tour bus have a work permit?

And no road in Thailand is suitable for Thai drivers.

At least it's better to sit inside a big bus than a small pickup when an accident happens.  Happy to hear no one was injured.
