Children hurt as Phuket minibus flips in rain

Come on guys, he is human. And many people would first like to blame something else, anything else, before looking at themselves.

Well then, there are many many 'human' people in Thailand.....

And certainly more human than in any other part of this world of ours...

Think our steve made a really daft statement, BUT, his thoughts are noted.

All this Van shall have an mechanical or electronically speed limiter maybe at 80 km/h if those drivers brain are not able take the responsibility.

We do same in Europe have different categories which start be limited at 40 km/h and after mostly in public transport at 80 km/h. maybe it helps a little bit to safe life

Recently riding in the front passenger seat of a mini bus from Surat bus station to Don Sak, i almost had to fight the driver an staff to make them find the 'hidden' seat belt. They threatened to leave me behind. I stuck to my guns and they eventually dug it out from under the seat. Incidentally, the driver planted his foot at a red light, almost crashing with a cement truck. ...............No more mini bus for me !

Glad he's a relative of the passengers, when they all recover they will know where to find the tw@t and kick the s**t out of him!!

NO way ! they will all blame the wet road.

and that is why i would rather lick dogs pee of stinging nettles than travel in a mini bus driven by a brainless moron with driving skills of a retarded monkey

A bit painful but wholly graphic mental image there mate

'Slid and lost control'

How about I was driving too fast and I am a poor driver. So I lost control.

Amazing how journalist in Phuket stop short of reporting the other pre-conditions surrounding the accident or event such as 'possible speed played a significant part that led to the accident' which was also perpetuated again by Phuket Gazette;

“He said it was raining and the road was very slippery",

All Phuket news outlets must have a no point at root cause policy and report only on the information of the event as news.

A similar policy to treating readers like mushrooms in the dark and being fed .... ....

Yet again the theory is proven that, "In Thailand, there is no emergency or crisis until it happens, and what goes on before or after the emergency or crisis bears no relationship on what an emergency or crisis truly is, ...eh... in the mind of a Thai, that is."

Since judging from your earlier posts you did not understand my statement, I am curious how you can reach that conclusion.

In this case, "humanity" is not lacking - education is.
