Workers hurt, killed in crashes

And the state of the roads...etc...At least 20 garment workers were injured yesterday in Takeo province’s Tram Kak district, a day after an agricultural worker was killed in a similar road accident.
The Takeo incident occurred yesterday morning as workers were being driven to their factories. Police reports said the truck was hit by a concrete mixer, during a failed attempt to overtake a car, throwing several of the workers from the vehicle.
Deputy district police chief Cheal Phat said the driver, Hem Vuthy, had been briefly detained but was let go after agreeing to pay the victims 2 million riel, about $500, in compensation. “The concrete truck driver was at fault...

Re: Third garment crash in three days sees 25 hurt
This thread was started not even two weeks ago, and in that short time there have been 6 reports of crashes involving garment trucks where many people have been injured and some have died. That's an accident every two days on average, and I doubt that they've all been reported here.
But yeah, carry on.

Re: Third garment crash in three days sees 25 hurt
And again. Has nobody noticed that most of these accidents are due to the careless drivers and overloading, both of which could be avoided ?

Re: Third garment crash in three days sees 25 hurt
Yes. Garment workers are being killed and badly injured in stupid truck accidents like clockwork very two days at the moment. According to the report here, on average more than 7 workers a day have been injured in transport accidents during the month of October. That is horrendous.Anchor Moy wrote:This thread was started not even two weeks ago, and in that short time there have been 6 reports of crashes involving garment trucks where many people have been injured and some have died. That's an accident every two days on average, and I doubt that they've all been reported here.
But yeah, carry on.
...Twelve garment workers were injured in Svay Rieng province yesterday after the open-topped truck they were riding in pulled out in front of a truck on National Road 4, which pushed the number of garment workers injured in road accidents to more than 100 in the past week and prompting the National Police to promise a crackdown on dangerous drivers.
“The truck carrying Thai products hit the back of the workers’ truck, but actually the truck carrying the workers was in the wrong because the driver did not respect the priority of the other truck using the road,” he said.
“According to our measurements from the scene, the truck carrying the workers pulled out from the side road into the national road without respecting other drivers, which caused the other truck to crash into the back of it.”
Mr. Vantha said the driver of the goods truck fled the scene, while the garment truck driver was one of those who received serious injuries and was still in hospital. Mr. Vantha was not sure if he would face charges of dangerous driving.
In October, 233 garment workers were reported to have been injured in road accidents in six provinces and Phnom Penh, while traveling to or from work.

Re: Third garment crash in three days sees 25 hurt
Yet another accident today. Again, the fault of a truck driver with an overloaded vehicle:
More Garment Workers Hurt in Road Accident
The day after the National Police vowed to crack down on dangerous driving by those transporting garment workers after a crash in Svay Rieng province that injured 12, another crash in the province left 26 more garment workers in need of medical care.
According to a report by the Ministry of Labor, the latest accident happened at 7:30am in Bavet town after a truck carrying 73 workers unsuccessfully tried to overtake a container truck and crashed into the side of it. Twenty-six workers were injured, one seriously...
“There are between 500 and 600 workers’ trucks coming to Bavet and Svay Rieng towns every day to the factories,” he [Pol Somao, the Bavet town traffic police chief] said, adding that regular education sessions for truck drivers on the road laws and safety advice were largely ignored...
