Too much carnage. Puts me off traveling.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

It's likely to get worse with Khmer New Year coming up (14-16 April). All the more reason to stay at home.

It is still odd hearing of the fears and worries people have about COVID, now in Cambodia, while piling kids 4up with no helmets on a scooter to head to school, etc.Bitte_Kein_Lexus wrote: ↑Wed Mar 31, 2021 9:11 amYou shouldn't focus on that.

Fear of the unfamiliar. The other one, they’ve been getting away with for years.

UPDATE
Cambodia News, (Battambang): According to the Phnom Penh Post, experts at the scene said that the accident was not due to a technical fault, but occurred because the truck was overloaded with milled rice, and driver didn't brake soon enough when coming down a steep road from the Phnom Proek Mountains.
O’Romduol commune police chief Phan Sros said that the driver accidentally took the wrong road and then had to drive through steep mountain roads known to be dangerous for trucks.
“Now, this road was just recently paved. Before it was paved, it was even worse – even Thai trucks would lose control on that road. Drivers who take that road would have to shift into second gear in advance before climbing down the steep part,” he said.
