Land accidents which damage life and property tend to decrease
which might be because of the big campaign of a strong policy on “Drink
don’t drive” and other policies by related agencies, such as Department of
Land Transportation, Royal Thai Police. Therefore the number of person
who got losses from land accidents decreased about 80,000 persons in 2007
to 30,000 persons in 2012.
