They will find the driver ... he will probably claim brake failure and that he was too shocked to stay and call police or an ambulance ... deja vue ...

From the link:

Witnesses told police that there was a truck that suddenly crashed into the motorbike but the truck did not stop. However, police are checking CCTV footage nearby to find the exact cause of the accident and to attempt to track down the hit-and-run driver. 

 

Find the driver and charge them with 3 counts of manslaughter and one of attempted manslaughter...

These runners must be taught a hard lesson.

These Thai drivers are cowardly scum. How can you run over 3 people and leave them in the road to die?

It sounds like there were 4 people, one who was seriously injured,  and the motorcycle was overloaded.

Or 'fined' to avoid discovery.

A quick google of "Hit and run accident" shockingly reveals that this also happens in other countries! By non-Thai drivers!

I couldn't believe it, but there it is.

A quick google of....  'it also happens in other countries'....   highlights a swathe of Thai Apologists who for some reason think that when something horrific happens in Thailand it can be excused if it has also happened in another country !!!..

 

How many Hit & Run accidents occur in your country compared to Thailand ???

I was addressing his "These Thai drivers are scum," the point being that all hit and run drivers are scum. It doesn't matter where they're from.

Seems to be the norm rather than the exception here.

 

Lots of laws, talking and bravado, but missing essential driver training, competence assessment, strict enforcement of those laws and proper punishments.
