BANGKOK, 15th April 2018 – The Highway Police have been rigorously enforcing traffic laws during the Songkran holiday in order to minimize road accidents.
Pol. Lt. Col. Jatupol Rengthanomsap, superintendent of Highway Police Section 6, has visited the service units in Nakhon Ratchasima, where he reconfirmed the policy to strictly enforce traffic laws to ensure road safety throughout this year’s Songkran holiday.
