Ah the usual ignorance of the fact surrounding Songkran road deaths. Songkran is the SAFEST time of year to travel on Thailands roads. Fact.
Annual road deaths...24000 divided by 365 days = 65.7 per day
Songkran.....................389 divided by 7 days = 55 per day.
And did you know (excluding motorcycles) road deaths in cars are about the same as the UK?
Thailand road deaths...by cars 6% of 24000 per year = 3.94 per day
UK road deaths ...........by cars 1400 per year = 3.83 per day
