04-23-09 Songkran Accident Report

Daeng and I are getting ready to start our month long road trip through out the northern half of Thailand. We will be driving a Honda Jazz into some areas of Thailand that we are interested in.

Before we go, we though we would bring you up to date on the accident count for the Songkran 2009 holiday.

Songkran's "seven dangerous days" ended with 373 deaths and 4,332 injuries in 3,977 road accidents nationwide.

If you would like more information click on this link: Deaths are up but accidents were down....
In the report that we linked it also talks about the "No sale of alcohol" law and how it did stop much of the sales.

We will keep you up to date during our travels.
