Nongprue is campaigning for residents to drive safely and wear motorcycle helmets as the “dangerous days” of Songkran approach.
Mayor Mai Chaiyanit chaired a Feb. 28 meeting at the sub-district office to plan road-safety measures.
Nongprue will push a public-relations campaign to get 100 percent of motorbike riders to wear helmets.
The campaign will continue through Songkran, the deadliest time of year for Thailand’s already deadly roads.
