I've no doubt this will become a trend! Next year we won't be counting deaths by wreckless and drunk driving, but the number of murders. 
It really is time to clamp down and control the revelling. Limit it to controlled areas, where those who want an official soaking go to meet.
One really does sick and tire of songkran after some lengthy time living here!

You are free to leave of living here is no longer enjoyable for you. Some of us are happy to join in with the fun. And don't forget that these are isolated incidents. Millions have enjoyed themselves. You get deaths and major events in almost all countries. Just look at the UK and USA. There are plenty getting shot and knifed every day, not just during festivals. A few isolated incidents, even if really bad, is no reason to ban a popular festival. The solution is to stop the idiots, not spoil the fun for the law-abiding people. It is the idiots that are the problem, not Songkran. Idiots are everywhere. Some of you boring expats would ban almost every activity of you could. If you don't like it here, then just leave instead of constantly complaining.
A hell of a lot of dissatisfaction goes unreported... not a few isolated incidents.

I find it rather odd that the Thai govt have no issue in excepting this good will offering of building a new school from the USA,but refused their help during the worst flooding for fifty years.
Thai gov't = Odd

I don't think the train driver should justify his misjudged braking distance.
The selfish drivers trying to inch their way home and ignoring rules of the road are to blame.

The continual absence of enforcement is to blame....
