A crash involving multiple vehicles occurred on the morning of November 8, at a busy intersection in Hat Yai, Songkhla Province, resulting in injuries to seven people.

 

At approximately 10:00 local police were alerted to a collision at the intersection near Big C Khlong Hae, located in the Khlong Hae sub-district of Hat Yai. Responding to the scene, officers from the Hat Yai Police Station, along with emergency rescue teams from Khlong Hae Municipality, the Thung Sieang Tong Foundation, and Thachang Municipality, quickly provided aid to the injured and assessed the accident site.

 

Upon arrival, responders found a damaged Malaysian-registered Proton Saga. The car’s left-side doors were crushed, and the front left window shattered. The two individuals in the Proton were injured and immediately taken to Hat Yai Hospital. Additionally, a Mitsubishi Pajero SUV with license plate from Songkhla, though still operable, sustained front-end damage. The crash also involved three motorcycles, two of which were regular bikes and one equipped with a sidecar, which were stopped at the traffic light at the time of the crash.

 

Eyewitness accounts indicated that the Malaysian car was heading from Lopburi Ramesuan Road and intended to make a turn towards Hat Yai when it collided with the Pajero, which was driving straight through the intersection. The impact sent the sedan crashing into the waiting motorcycles, injuring five additional people.

 

According to statements from the drivers, the Proton driver reported attempting a left turn towards Hat Yai when the Pajero collided with it. The Pajero driver, however, claimed to have been driving straight with a green light when the Proton unexpectedly turned in front of him.

 

Police will interview both drivers and examine CCTV footage from the intersection to clarify the cause and identify any potential traffic violations. Any vehicle dashcam footage from those involved will also be reviewed to determine responsibility for the accident.
