You find the true numbers at thairsc.com (Thai Accident Information Centre). Multiply the 26 accidents by a factor of between 8 and 10 to get to the true numbers.

I live in beachside Rawai and hear every day at least 3 Ambulances sirens blaring at different times. Rawai/Naiharn Beach area covers around 5% of Phuket.
