How very sad for the families of these young men. We hear about so many bad people, but here were three young people working for living and now their gone. I am sure they will be missed.

Agree with you scott. Very sad for the families. 3 low paid workers sharing a ride home from work. Awful

an accident that could have been easily avoided if the rules of the road where adhered to

1) the truck should NEVER of been on the road without rear lights !

2) the police really need to re enforce how many people can be on a bike , as they are not designed for 3 people !,

3) the report mentions the bike was speeding, again re enforcement of the law, if you are travelling at high speed, no way can you control a bike with 3 grown men on it

RIP to the young men that lost their lives, but we will keep seeing these reports untill something is done to improve road safty in thailand

True but nothing will happen to improve road safety whilst the bib are content with collecting their tea money
