3 Kids on a Moto Killed Outright in Collision with Bus

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

This is horrible. And it is not fate. Why allow access to bikes to kids... so many whys. Some logical, fact based parenting is badly needed in this region and the enforcers, courts, agencies & ministries need to clean up their act and scale up their focus. Something like this should never have been allowed to happen on so many levels... So many moving parts that could have change the course of these kids path.

With no helmet.,,,,,, and at night time I would estimate only 1 in ten motorcyclists are wearing a helmet . I was counting them about one hour ago.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

It doesn't help road safety when the highest person in the land (barring the other highest person of course) has publicly said that all Cambodians know how to ride motorbikes, and therefore nobody needs to pass a driver's license. The implicit message is that the road rules don't really matter.
It' s true that any kid in Cambodia can ride a motorbike, but children don't have safety reflexes unless they get taught.

You barang parents out there, how do you feel about your kids riding scooters ? Do you forbid them to drive before the legal age of 15 ? Do you give them lessons ?
