Bangkoktraveler Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 A bus carrying Chinese tourists had a rear-end accident on the way from Bangkok to nearby resort town Pattaya Saturday afternoon. All the 29 people on board, including 26 Chinese tourists and one Chinese guide, were injured. The sight-seeing bus was heading to Pattaya, a popular beach town in central Thai province of Chon Buri, about 150 km in the southeast of Bangkok, when it joined two other vehicles running in front of it in a rear-end collision in Chun Buri's Sri Racha district at around 4:30 p.m.(0930 GMT). The injured were all sent to a local hospital. The bus was largely damaged. Doctors at the hospital told Xinhua that the passengers suffered injuries of different levels. Among the 27 Chinese passengers, three were seriously injured, who need to be hospitalized for check for 24 hours to 48 hours. One of the three, all tourists, was put in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The other passengers were slightly injured, mostly in the teeth and the jaw as a result of face bumping into the seat back when the crash happened, the doctors said. A Thai tourist guide aboard and the Thai driver were also slightly injured. All of them could leave the hospital tonight. The Chinese Embassy in Bangkok confirmed to Xinhua that the Chinese tourists were on a package tour, arriving in Bangkok on Thursday from Zhengzhou, capital city of Henan Province in central China.
