Chachoengsao bus accident leaves 24 injured after canal plunge

On September 7, a bus accident in Chachoengsao province left 24 people injured after the vehicle plunged into a roadside canal. The incident occurred around 6:30 am in Bang Pakong district, when a bus carrying approximately 30 Myanmar workers to an industrial estate left its narrow road and overturned. Police Lieutenant Colonel Somsak Puangsuk, along with Chachoengsao rescue workers, arrived at the scene, where they discovered a Mercedes-Benz bus in the Lam Wai Ling Canal.

The 65-year-old driver, Amnuay, along with the other passengers, managed to escape the vehicle, which was attended to by first aid responders before being transported to a nearby hospital. Amnuay recounted that the bus went off the shoulder of the road, entered a rut, and subsequently lost stability, leading to its overturning into the canal. The police are currently investigating the details of the accident.
