At approximately 15:40 on December 9, a truck collided with a car, which then struck a school transport vehicle and a farm truck at the Pak Puan intersection on Maliwan Road, Pak Puan village, Wang Saphung district, Loei province. The crash resulted in injuries to numerous schoolchildren.

 

Eyewitnesses reported that the incident occurred during school dismissal. A pickup truck modified as a school vehicle was carrying about 20 students from Pak Puan School, ranging from kindergarten to secondary school levels. The school transport vehicle had stopped at the red light, preparing to turn right into Pak Puan village. Ahead of it was a farm truck loaded with sacks of rice, also stopped at the light, while a white car was positioned behind the school vehicle.

 

Suddenly, a truck, reportedly returning from a construction site and equipped with a lifting crane o the rear, slammed into the car, propelling it into the school vehicle. The impact pushed the school transport vehicle into the farm truck ahead, causing severe damage. Most of the students sitting in the rear of the school vehicle sustained injuries. Among them, a student suffered serious leg injuries, with one leg reported to have been torn off.

 

Emergency responders quickly transported a total of 19 injured individuals to Wang Saphung Hospital for treatment. Police detained the truck driver for questioning and legal proceedings.

 

Pak Puan intersection has been the site of frequent accidents, often caused by drivers running red lights, according to local residents.
