Van driver Pramot Bunchan was seriously injured and all 12 passengers received lesser injuries. The accident occured on the Ban Phai-Borabue road in Ban Phai district, Khon Kaen, late that night. "I saw the trailer driver trying speed off, away from the scene, weaving, trying to shake it [the van] loose, but unsuccessfully," Ms Darika said. The van was dragged along the road for about one kilometre before truck driver finally stopped on the roadside, she said. Police had so far held off pressing charges against either of the two drivers, pending further interrogation, Ban Phai deputy police inspector Pol Capt Nikhom Sata said.
