DRUNK DRIVERS IN THAILAND,WILL NOW BE SENTENCED TO THE MORGUE TO WORK,AS PUNISHMENT.

                  Anyone caught drunk driving in Thailand will be sent to work in a morgue under new measures which aim to reduce the country's high rate of road fatalities,and it is approved by the Thai government.The Bangkok post reports that those convicted of the offense could be sentenced to time at a hospital morgue.Thai courts sentence those convicted of drunk driving to community service,which uually entails roadside work or helping hospital staff treat those involved in car crashes but the country's Probation Department said it does not have as much of an impact.Nonjit Natepukka,a senior official is quoted in the Telegragp as saying ''We think the intensity that comes from working in a morgue will help give those doing community service a clearer picture of what happens after accidents caused by drink driving''.The announcement came on the eve of the Songkran festival,which is seen as one of the two most dangerous times on Thai roads,the other being western New Year.With a surge in traffic on the roads,combined with an increase in alcohol consumption,the two holidays have been branded the ''Seven Deadly Days'' with an estimated 2.3 people dying per hour during the festivals and 160 injured.More photos below.
