By The Nation

 

BANGKOK: -- Two adults and a girl were killed after their sedan overturned on a road in Bangkok’s Nong Chok district early on Monday, police said.

 

The accident happened on Pracha Samrarn Road in front of Soi Pracha Samrarn 3, a little past midnight.

 

Police said said Nirut Kulkerd, 38, died on the spot. Jiraporn Boonkaew, 51, and Printip Pasitkosin, 8, died at the Nong Chok Hospital.

The four injured were identified as Adisak Sakwichit, 37, Warunee Sakwichit 36, Naruemol Khamkhun 22, and Piramet Pasitkosin, 5.

 

Pol Capt Suwit Ratachaipat of Nong Chok Police Station said the survivors would be interrogated after their condition improves to find out who had driven the car.

At least at song Khran the daily death rate is lower than the average for the rest of the year.

RIP. Condolences to families and friends and may those injured have a speedy recovery.

La la la brakes failed right. More likely going like  a "Bat out of hell" and not driving to the conditions of the road Next case 25,000 dead looking good

hmmmm....approximately 70 people are killed per day on thailand roads...... this increases to over 100 per day over songkran.... so you really need to be careful driving here

Not necessarily - the figures - which are of course pretty unreliable consistently bring SK deaths to about 60 to 70 whereas daily figures come out at up to 80. remember this is only one type of stat out of many . i.e per 100k pop...nothing to do with traffic volume or miles covered etc etc....Thailand doesn't even have an annual casualty stat. nothing is cut and dried with road stats - in particular in Thailand.

From a worldwide point of view big national holidays usually mark a downturn in road casualties - partly because of publicity and partly due to the nature /demographics of the traffic - e.g. a lot less commercial traffic than normal and a lot of very slow traffic congestion.....I'd say that police intervention actually causes more collisions in Thailand - whether or not they are fatal we will never know.
