A devastating car crash on a highway in Chumphon has claimed the lives of a married couple and their three-year-old son, leaving only their eight-year-old daughter as the sole survivor.

 

The fatal crash occurred at approximately 12:20 on 2 February, on Asia Highway 41 in Wisai Tai, Sawi district. Police and emergency rescue teams from Chumphon Foundation and Wisai Nuea Rescue Unit rushed to the scene after receiving reports of a vehicle plunging off the roadside.

 

The crash took place on the Bangkok-bound lane near Khuan Khanun Hill. A white Honda CR-V with Bangkok registration had veered off the road and tumbled down a five-metre embankment before landing on its roof. The car was completely wrecked, with personal belongings and debris scattered across the area.

 

Rescuers recovered the bodies of three victims from the vehicle:

 

• Mr Chanthanong 46, a hospital IT officer

• Ms Nareerath 45, a pharmacist at the same hospital

• Master Kalawela their three-year-old son

 

Miraculously, their eight-year-old daughter, Miss Taratara, survived with injuries to her foot. She was taken to Sawi Hospital, where she is reported to be in stable condition. The bodies of the deceased were also transported to the hospital for further examinations.

 


Mr Nop 81, a resident near the crash site, described the moment he witnessed the crash.

 

“I saw the car driver lose control, spinning, before hitting a palm tree in front of my house. It was shocking. When I ran over, I heard a little girl crying, so I helped her out. The others in the car were silent,” he recalled.

 

Initial investigations suggest that the driver lost control of the vehicle, with skid marks indicating an attempt to correct course before the car veered off the road. Authorities are reviewing CCTV footage to determine the exact cause of the crash.
