One woman was found trapped under the wreckage.

KRABI: -- One passenger was killed and 28 injured when the tour bus they were travelling on flipped and fell into a ditch in Ao Luek in Krabi last night.

At 10:30pm the Nopparat Centre in Krabi was called to the scene of an accident where a tour bus travelling from Phuket to Krabi crashed and landed on its side in a ditch on Petkasem Rd at Baan Lhumtong in Ao Luek.

Police and rescue workers arrived at the scene where they found the Sungai Koluk-Phuket tour bus lying on its side in a ditch with many injured passengers trapped inside.

The body of a woman passenger was found trapped under the wreckage. A crane was used to lift the wrecked bus so that the body could be removed. The body was taken to hospital.

Rescue workers also took the 28 injured passengers to Ao Luekand Krabi hospitals.

Police are currently investigating the circumstances of the accident.

Is this another one those sub standard too high too narrow death traps?

Wet road and too fast, I'll bet I know the exact curve where this guy lost it. RIP to the lady, bad luck, I hope she was asleep....

A "strange" report. No mention of slippery road, or brakes not working or driver running away?? whistling.gif

My condolences to the family and friends of the lady killed.

RIP to the dead person. Hope all the injured recover OK.

Crashing buses. There is always plenty of bus crashes, but now there seems to be an epidemic!

Well, if it's just going to up and rain in the middle of a bus trip, you have to expect them to go flying off the road!

Why wasn't he told.

Ok, it was my second comment gigglem.gif

In defense of my first comment, I must say I have seen some silly suggestions made sometimes by other posters. And yours could be taken either way and I was truly hoping my second comment was the correct one.
