Phayao: Teen loses his life as motorbike slams into power pole
Photo courtesy of KhaoSod By Puntid Tantivangphaisal A tragic accident marked the beginning of the Seven Dangerous Days in the northern province of Phayao, as a 19 year old lost his life after crashing his motorcycle into a roadside power pole. The accident occurred yesterday, December 25 on the first day of the safety campaign, aimed at reducing road accidents during the new year period. Police were alerted to the accident involving a motorcycle collision with a power pole, which resulted in one fatality on the Nakhon Sawan-Chiang Rai road in Ban Mae Ka Nong Kaeo, Mae Ka subdistrict, Mueang Phayao district. Officers, including forensic medical personnel from Phayao Hospital, swiftly coordinated with rescue teams from the Lee Cha Phayao Foundation, Fa Mui Ambulance Service, and Mae Ka Subdistrict Municipality’s emergency services to inspect the scene. A white Honda motorcycle with the registration 1 กข 434 Phayao was found with its front severely damaged, embedded into the power pole by the roadside. Nearby, the body of the 19 year old male rider was discovered. He suffered severe head and facial injuries due to the violent impact. Police initially found no other parties involved in the accident. It is suspected that the young man was riding at high speed and lost control, leading to the crash into the power pole. To determine the exact cause of the accident, officials will examine footage from nearby CCTV cameras. The deceased’s body was transported to the hospital, awaiting family arrangements for religious rites. “This accident represents the first casualty in Phayao following the announcement of the Seven Dangerous Days campaign, which spans from December 25 to December 31.” This tragic accident underscores the importance of road safety, especially during periods labelled as particularly hazardous. The Seven Dangerous Days campaign is an annual initiative aimed at raising awareness and reducing road accidents during the festive season when travel significantly increases. This period often sees a rise in traffic-related incidents due to factors such as increased travel volume, alcohol consumption, and sometimes adverse weather conditions, reported KhaoSod.

Saudia Airlines - Choose Carefully
Until recently I flew to Thailand 8 -10 times per year. It is only by seeking out the best value deals that I was able to do that. I don't like short layovers - some of these middle eastern airports are massive and getting to the next gate on time can be extremely difficult. I actually enjoy time spent in the lounge - direct flights are too mush for me, I've tried them. I am also a smoker. On my last flight with Qatar, the stopover was around 1.5 hours - never again. We arrived 15 minutes late and then had to wait a further 15 minutes whilst some of the royal family's employees were allowed to join those in business class and leave together. To add to the delay, clearly the new Doha airport isn't big enough because we parked out on the concrete and had to wait for buses to ferry us to the terminal. Then, as has now become the norm again, we had to pass through security yet again (clearly we'd had the opportunity to visit the terrorist shop in the sky). We were assured that our ongoing flights were aware and would wait - mine didn't. I then had to fight with Qatar who were trying to tell me that according to their system my flight had arrived more or less on time and I should have been able to catch my connection! No allowance was made for the matters above. When I got through security my next flight was listed as 'Gate Closed'. Qatar staff advised me to go to the 'connections desk' - long queue. I was then advised that they couldn't help and was sent upstairs where the fighting began. Whenever possible I choose flights with at least a 2 hour layover - especially in airports that are so big, you have to get a train between gates. I wouldn't recommend anyone accepts anything less - especially if you plan on visiting duty free. -
