Thailand’s roads have claimed 215 lives just five days into the “10 Dangerous Days” New Year road safety campaign, with 1,398 accidents and 1,354 injuries recorded from December 27 to 31, 2024. Motorcycles were involved in nearly 90% of incidents, with speeding, drink-driving, and reckless overtaking as leading causes. Highways and local roads saw the most accidents, particularly during late-night and evening hours. Young adults aged 20–29 were the most affected group.
