The carnage has started.

R.I.P. When will these drivers ever learn! Anyone know how serious the injuries were? That is, is the death toll likely to rise above 3?

It is okay folks. The Government has solution to problem. Ban 50% of buses from the road and enforce seat belt wearing! Duh!!  

 

Will not train/re-train drivers or enforce regulations because those are farang ideas to do those things.

Cie la vie.

It would be nice if every Bus company had to post statistics at the point where you buy your ticket, detailing how many accidents, injuries and deaths they have been responsible for. At least then you would have some idea of your chances of getting to your destination alive and intact.

 

Sounds like the driver was falling asleep, this happened near dawn.

 

When is the government going to bring in log books as they promised to do within 30 days!

 

When are they going to make driver changes compulsory on long hauls where drivers drive for 14 or more hours with just a short meal break.

This kind of madness is not permitted in most countries where log books and driving hours are strictly monitored .

Another bus crash.  Every few days.   Now ask me again why I  never travel on Thai buses.

Why do you never travel on Thai buses?

Yes and with the Thai education standards as HIgh as they are and the sardine mentality it could just as easily be 75 couldn't it?

they will just not wear seat belts, just came back from Pattya, the bus courier, told them to put belts on, some did but you could hear the clicks of many belts being undone when she went to the front of the bus.
