A blue air-conditioned bus on Route 1-54 (Minburi to Suan Lum) crashed onto a footpath on Ladprao Road at 7:13 a.m. on July 11, 2025, injuring ten passengers near Bangkok Study School. Emergency services from Ladprao Fire Station and Po Tek Tung Foundation rescue workers responded to the three-lane road incident near Soi Ladprao 112 in Wang Thonglang District. At the scene, the bus's front end was heavily damaged with broken windows. The vehicle struck an electrical control box and knocked down several roadside trees, causing traffic to slow in the area. Initial investigation indicates the driver was unable to control the accelerator pedal during operation. A shop located within a school fence adjacent to the crash site sustained structural damage to its metal-frame and metal-sheet roof, affecting approximately 8 square meters. Seven injured passengers were taken to Phetchvet Hospital, while three others were transported to Ladprao Hospital. The group consisted of two male and eight female victims.
