The bus driver fled the scene. In Bangkok Yai district, a retired teacher stumbled and fell on the road while trying to board bus No 1914 travelling along Issarapharb Road.

I see this on a day by day basis. Its so sad when incidents like this happen, its even more amazing that there are not more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
