287 over the 7 days is an average of 41. Average daily death toll is around the 60 mark. This is a bit dated but https://cdn.who.int/media/docs/default-source/thailand/roadsafety/overview-en-final-25-7-19.pdf?sfvrsn=f9d7a862_2 -

Understaffing, not corruption, is to blame for an underperforming police force. They decided a couple of years ago to not even pretend to investigate minor crimes such as break-ins. The world continues to go backwards in so many ways, and that is just one example. -
When I first came to Thailand in 2004 I noticed that most of the road users used their horns to let people know they were there in a friendly way. I even remarked to friends back home about how the Thais correctly use the horn as a warning of their presence. At the time I was a Policeman and had had a few dealings with cases of road rage in my home country, Australia. Mind you there were a lot less cars on Thai roads back then as hardly any poor Thais could afford to own a car. Then came the Government incentives to buy a car and, suddenly the roads became choked and manners flew out the door.

No, not a direct action against Iran, or the Iranian people, but a military action against the Islamic Republic; if you do not fully understand the difference between the millions of good, cultured, Iranian citizens, and the Islamic Republic and the IRGC, under whose iron boot these millions of people suffer, then it is well worth spending 4 minutes listening to the intelligent, articulate, and proudly Iranian woman in this podcast. https://x.com/Osint613/status/1779767681471721564

There was a figure some years ago by UN: they estimated that almost 30.000 per year would have died in total caused by road accidents. 😳
