It never skidded off the road, damn there has been no rain for ages. Driver was incompetent he drove it off the road.

lost control of the bus and ploughed into roadside bushes, with the bus ending up on its side.

You really know that it´s low spending times, when a tour bus starts to look like a songthaew.

16 people in a songteaw seems a bit cramped to me.

Driver should at least be  prosecuted for overloading his truck.

Funny that Thailand never mentions road safety in their tourist issues-word of mouth is significant-maybe that’s why they are down to the two most populated countries?

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year... sorry we don't serve turkey lunches hope you're out by 25th!

Come back next year and bring friends !!

So, 16 people in the back, maybe very little contact between front wheels & tarmac, hence no steering, these drivers are dummies.

That's a Thai tourbus? My my, I wonder what their tuktuks are like.

 

I see busses that are as tall as double deckers driving along the road. Beautifully decorated. I was assured by the wife that these are tourbusses. The photo obviously caught it on a bad day.

Wouldn't that mean more mouths to spread the word?

Yes, they don’t seem to think road deaths have anything to do with tourism.  It seems they believe it is only a Thai problem
