Phuket bus crash driver succumbs to her injuries


Ms Tantima's Ford car was severely damaged in the collision with the bus

PHUKET: Tantima Thaworn, 37, died today (January 1) of injuries she received in a road smash on Tuesday (December 30).

Ms Tantima was the driver of a Ford Fiesta which smashed into a tour bus between Kamala and Patong.

The bus left the road and rolled down a slope, ending upside down. Amazingly, no one on the bus was badly injured but Ms Tantima suffered critical internal injuries.

Looking at that damage, she would still be alive if she'd been buckled up.

Most cars nowadays have an annoying beeping that continues if you don't put your seatbelt on. Do people just ignore it or do they disable it somehow?

Why the presumption she was not wearing a seatbelt?

RIP.

R.I.P.

though she doesn't count as traffic victim?

Seat belts can cause the internal injuries. Yes they save lives but also cause injury if the impact is hard enough.

RIP. Young daughter now without a mother.

Car like that should have had an airbag go off as well as the seat belt, so even if she avoided the belt (Thais so often do that), she could not have avoided the airbag. Sad, RIP.

She was.

Your all missing the point, what the hell was she doing to run into the bus or did the bus run into her ?

You can add your comments in the thread about the accident. This is about a mother of a young daughter who is dead as the result of a traffic accident.

The original report said it was a pick-up if I remember correctly. And she was on the wrong side of the road overtaking on a blind bend as is all-too-common here.

That's why Thai's turn their car stereos up loud - so they can't hear the beeps.
