webfact Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 "Zero deaths on public transport!" That's my New Year target says DLT chief Department of Land Transport chief Pheeraphon Thawornsupcharoen has made a bold statement in relation to public transport in Thailand during the New Year holidays. He has said that his target is zero fatalities. To do this he will be checking all vehicles and drivers. There will especially be lots of driver alcohol testing at bus stations and where vehicles park. Their licenses will all be checked. He was also determined that not a single passenger will be left stranded. In line with communications' ministry guidelines extra vehicles will be added to routes to ensure no one is left disappointed. He trumpeted a system called "Smart Bus Terminal" that will monitor arrivals and departures in "real time" utilizing a master control panel at bus stations and help from apps.

Burma Bill Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 There will especially be lots of driver alcohol testing at bus stations and where vehicles park. He was also determined that not a single passenger will be left stranded. What if a driver/co-driver is tested positive for alcohol? His bus will be stopped whilst the company scrambles to find a sober driver thus leaving many passengers stranded. If you have experienced Morchit bus station in Bangkok, I believe it would need an "army" of breath testers for all the drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Muton Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Ha! Just this morning I was driving in Bangkok and saw a bus slam into the back of a car, ramming it into the rear of a second bus. No fatalities this time but exactly the kind of idiotic, careless, selfish behaviour that does kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
