Bueng Kan: The office of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation in Bueng Kan Province has cooperated with other related units in launching an emergency drill to lower the number of road casualties during the Songkran festival.
The training is intended to simulate a situation that a bus with 40 passengers crashed into a large truck and then swerved out to hit a student van where a large number of people died and got injured. Mobile medical teams and related units participating in the drill were sending victims to hospitals.
The drill is aimed to boost the efficiency of the province's emergency teams in preventing and lowering number of casualties in the Thai New Year celebration. |
