Chonburi panel tackles road fatality problem

CPRD

Chonburi officials are taking another stab at reducing vehicle accidents that leave thousands dead and injured across the province each year.

Deputy Gov. Pakarathon Tianchai led the first meeting of the committee assigned to collect statistics and draft accident-prevention plans April 29. The panel’s goal is to reduce Chonburi road fatalities to 1 in 10,000 people per year by 2020.

Chonburi currently sees three people per day, which is a rate of about 3 in 10,000 people per year, killed on its roads and highways, according to statistics from 2008.

Commission subcommittees will gather accident statistics, determine the cause of smashups and the risk factors involved. Another group will work to prevent accidents by improving navigational information and minimizing those risk factors.
