A collision occurred on the morning of February 10, when a trailer truck crashed into a passenger bus on the Lampang-Kohka Road, near the Naresuan Monument in Kohka District, Lampang. The crash left several injured, with one passenger later succumbing to their injuries.

 

At approximately 10:05 the Lampang Rescue Association reported the incident, which involved a trailer truck colliding with a blue pickup bus on the route between Mae Phueng (Serm Ngam) and the city of Lampang. The bus flipped onto its roof and crashed into a tree, leaving around 7-8 passengers scattered on the ground, many seriously injured.

 

Emergency services were swiftly deployed, including medical teams from Kohka Hospital and local rescue units, who rushed to the scene to assist the victims. Among the injured, one female passenger was found in critical condition, and despite attempts at CPR, she later passed away. All other survivors were promptly transported to the hospital.

 

The trailer truck, owned by a private company, was found 50 metres from the site of the collision, with the front of the vehicle damaged. The driver, a man aged 35, was at the scene and cooperated with authorities.

 

Witnesses to the event described the horrific scene, with one local resident recounting how they saw the trailer truck smash into the bus with a loud crash, causing the rear of the bus to lift into the air before flipping onto its roof. Several passengers were ejected, and the driver managed to crawl from the wreckage. Fearing the truck driver might flee, the witness quickly intervened to prevent this.

 

The trailer truck driver explained that he had been driving from Bangkok and was en route to deliver goods in the city of Lampang. He stated that he failed to notice the bus indicating a turn into the hospital area before the collision occurred.

 

Authorities are currently gathering evidence and witness statements and will pursue legal action against the parties involved.
