It is now that time of year when the Thai government publicise the daily accident reports from around Thailand. This year, the “Seven Dangerous Days of the New Year” is from 29th December 2016 to 4th January 2017. It should be noted that it is not 100% accurate as some accidents do go unreported. However, in these days of social media reporting, which includes local media, it is difficult to hide any reports of deaths.

There was once a case a few years back when local media in Phuket disputed the numbers. They had reported the death of a migrant worker but it wasn’t reported in official statistics. Hopefully this year will be more accurate. It should also be noted, that unlike in the past, deaths are not just recorded if they happen at the scene of the accident. They update the statistics if a person later dies in hospital.

her er en af de slemme ulykker


25 DIE IN FIERY CHONBURI WRECK




CHONBURI — At least 25 people were killed Monday afternoon when a van and truck burst into flames after colliding in the Ban Bueng district of Chonburi province.

The van was traveling from Chanthaburi to Bangkok when it collided at about 2pm with the pickup on Highway No. 344. Both vehicles were engulfed in flames and 25 people died, including passengers and the driver of the van.

Bancha Pannum, a witness at the scene, said he saw the van drive through the intersection, cross several lanes and crash into the truck, which was also full of passengers.

The Bangkok-bound van driver might have fallen asleep while driving, according to a preliminary police report.

teori og køreprøve burde strammes væsentlig op. har selv begge kort, det er jo latterligt som man erhverver dem

---

Ja det er fuldstændig latterligt som det foregår, specielt køreprøven. Jeg har selv erhvervet til motorcykel både med teoriprøve og køreprøve. Så på den lille lukkede bane hvordan folk kom kørende dertil i egne biler og aflagde en overordentlig simpel prøve. De lærer jo slet ingenting om hvordan man begår sig ude i trafikken. Når der så tilmed kommer godt med alkohol indenbords går det jo for alvor galt. Mange af det trafikale problemer med traficjam kunne elimineres hvis folk kunne køre bil og de vidste hvor de har den henne. De kan jo heller ikke bedømme afstand.

Det tror da pokker!!
-En 64-årig chauffør på sin 5. rundtur á 500 km. indenfor 31 timer.
Med det aflønningssystem (delvis akkord) opfordrer man jo til hasarderet kørsel (raket i røven), samt overskridelse af køretid.-Totalt vandvittigt.:o
Crash driver 'likely to have dozed off'
64-year-old made five round trips in 31 hours

Crash investigators say the driver was on his fifth 500-kilometre round trip in 31 hours when he veered into the pickup's path

Her et uddrag af artiklen, som påviser de livsfarlige aflønningssystemer:

de vil stramme op, de vil så meget, intet hjælper det er kørsel moralen eller mangel på samme som det er galt med

---

Det ville jo hjælpe hvis man havde noget politi der var interesseret i andet end at stoppe penge i egen lomme. Det er jo tolalt grotesk når man ser hvad de lukker øjnene for og blot kører forbi. Det gælder alt fra hasarderet kørsel til parkering i 3. Spor. De er fuldstændig ligeglade.

når 36% af ulykker er forårsaget af spritbilister og 31% af hastigheds overskridelser
har samfundet er stort problem som ikke forsvinder lige med det samme
