Defence Minister Lieutenant General Adul Bunthamcharoen brought his official convoy to an abrupt halt after encountering a road accident on Bangkok’s Lan Luang Road. He left his vehicle, inspected the crash and directed police, nurses and rescue teams as they rushed the injured to hospital. Officers secured the road against further accidents, while the minister postponed his scheduled duties and remained until every victim had left the scene.

Defence Minister Lieutenant General Adul Bunthamcharoen halted his official convoy after encountering a road accident on Wednesday. The crash occurred on Lan Luang Road, opposite Ban Phitsanulok. At the time, the minister was travelling to a scheduled official assignment. He immediately ordered the convoy to stop.

Lieutenant General Adul left his vehicle and inspected the scene himself. In response, accompanying officials moved to assist those injured in the crash. The minister ordered that the victims receive immediate help. He also demanded their rapid transfer to hospital.

Meanwhile, police officers and rescue workers were summoned to Lan Luang Road. Lieutenant General Adul coordinated their deployment while his journey remained suspended. As part of this, he instructed responders to reach the victims without delay. Medical transportation was also placed at the centre of the operation.

Police officers arrived and secured the crash site. In parallel, other officers began controlling vehicles approaching the area. Their deployment protected the victims and emergency personnel beside the road. It also kept passing traffic away from the immediate accident scene.

Rescue teams subsequently reached the injured and began preparing them for transportation. Nurses also arrived to support the roadside response. At that stage, Lieutenant General Adul remained at the scene. He did not return to his convoy after emergency personnel took control.

Instead, the minister waited while the victims received assistance. Rescue workers handled their removal from the road. Separately, police continued managing traffic and clearing the surrounding area. Their work was intended to prevent further accidents during the emergency response.

The injured were then placed under the care of nurses and rescue personnel. Soon afterwards, emergency teams transported them to hospital for treatment. The minister remained on Lan Luang Road throughout the transfer. Only when the victims had left did he prepare to continue his journey.

Minister delays official programme as police, nurses and rescue teams complete the roadside operation

The intervention temporarily halted the minister’s scheduled programme. Nevertheless, Lieutenant General Adul required the accident response to be addressed first. His convoy remained stationary while police and medical personnel completed their immediate duties. The official journey resumed only after the hospital transfer.

The response involved several groups working at the same time. Rescue personnel concentrated on the injured victims. Police, by contrast, handled road safety and traffic conditions. Nurses supported the medical operation before the victims left for hospital.

Notably, the minister personally inspected the scene before giving his instructions. He then coordinated with police officers and rescue teams. His orders covered medical assistance, hospital transportation and traffic safety. Each element was addressed before the convoy departed.

On another front, officers worked to clear the affected section of Lan Luang Road. The accident scene posed a further risk to passing motorists. Accordingly, police managed vehicles while rescue workers operated beside the road. The area was progressively cleared as the emergency response continued.

Adul waits beside halted convoy until injured victims leave for hospital and police control the road

Throughout the operation, Lieutenant General Adul remained outside his official vehicle. He monitored the response and waited for the victims’ removal. At the same time, his remaining scheduled duties were placed on hold. The convoy did not move while the injured remained at the scene.

Once the victims reached emergency vehicles, rescue teams began the hospital journey. Police officers remained behind to control the road. Consequently, the minister could return to his convoy and continue his official programme. He departed after the medical transfer had been completed.

The official bulletin focused closely on the minister’s actions during the incident. First, he stopped the convoy after seeing the crash. He then inspected the scene and ordered immediate assistance. Finally, he remained there until the injured were transported for treatment.

No information was supplied about the number of victims. Likewise, their names, ages and injuries were not disclosed. The account provided no update about their conditions after hospital admission. It also did not identify the hospital receiving them.

Bulletin gives no cause or victim details as Adul resumes official duties after the hospital transfer

Details about the vehicles involved were not included. Nor did the bulletin explain how the accident occurred. However, it confirmed that the crash required police, rescue and nursing assistance. It also confirmed that the injured needed hospital treatment.

The location was identified as Lan Luang Road, opposite Ban Phitsanulok. The incident occurred on September 2 during the minister’s journey to official duties. During the stop, police managed traffic while medical teams assisted the victims. The road was also cleared to reduce the danger of another accident.

Lieutenant General Adul stressed the importance of timely assistance for those affected. In addition, he called for coordination among the agencies handling the situation. Those instructions remained in force until the injured had left for hospital. The minister then resumed the duties listed on his schedule.

Ultimately, the roadside operation delayed but did not cancel the minister’s planned work. Emergency teams transported the injured while police controlled the crash site. Afterwards, Lieutenant General Adul returned to his convoy. He continued his journey once the immediate response was complete.

国防部长阿杜尔·本塔姆查伦中将率领的公务车队在曼谷兰銮路遭遇交通事故后紧急停车。他下车查看事故现场，并指挥警察、护士和救援队将伤者送往医院。警方封锁了道路以防止再次发生事故，部长则推迟了原定行程，留在现场直至所有伤者离开。

国防部长阿杜·本塔姆查伦中将周三遭遇交通事故后，立即下令车队停车。事故发生在兰銮路，靠近班彭世洛村对面。当时，部长正前往执行一项既定的公务任务。

阿杜尔中将下车亲自前往事故现场查看情况。随后，随行官员立即上前救助伤者。部长下令立即对伤者进行救治，并要求尽快将他们送往医院。

与此同时，警方和救援人员被召集到兰銮路。阿杜尔中将协调他们的部署，而他的行程则暂停了。为此，他指示救援人员立即抵达受害者身边。医疗运输也成为行动的核心。

警方封锁了兰銮路，救援队正在准备将伤者紧急送往医院。

警方人员赶到现场并封锁了事故现场。与此同时，其他警员开始疏导驶近该区域的车辆。他们的部署保护了路边的伤者和救援人员，也使过往车辆远离事故现场。

救援队随后抵达伤者身边，并开始准备将他们送往医院。护士也赶到现场支援路边救援。此时，阿杜尔中将仍留在现场。在救援人员接管指挥权后，他没有返回车队。

部长并未立即介入，而是留在现场等待伤者接受救助。救援人员将伤者从道路上移走。与此同时，警方继续疏导交通并清理周边区域。他们的工作旨在防止在紧急救援过程中发生更多事故。

伤者随后被交由护士和救援人员照料。不久后，急救队将他们送往医院接受治疗。部长全程留在兰銮路上，直到伤者离开后才准备继续行程。

由于警方、护士和救援队正在完成路边救援行动，部长推迟了官方行程安排。

此次突发事件暂时中断了部长的既定行程。尽管如此，阿杜尔中将仍要求优先处理事故。在警察和医务人员完成紧急任务期间，他的车队一直停留在原地。直到病人被送往医院后，正式行程才得以恢复。

救援行动由多个小组同时开展。救援人员集中精力救治伤者，而警方则负责道路安全和交通状况。护士们在伤者被送往医院前提供医疗援助。

值得注意的是，部长在下达指示前亲自视察了现场。随后，他与警方和救援队协调安排。他的指示涵盖了医疗援助、医院转运和交通安全等方面。所有事项在车队出发前都得到了妥善处理。

另一方面，警方正在清理兰銮路事故路段。事故现场对过往车辆构成进一步威胁。因此，警方疏导交通，救援人员则在路边展开作业。随着应急救援工作的继续，该区域逐步清理完毕。

阿杜尔在停下的车队旁等候，直到伤者被送往医院，警方才封锁了道路。

整个行动过程中，阿杜尔中将始终待在公务车外。他密切关注着救援行动，并等待伤员被转移。与此同时，他暂停了所有原定的公务。在伤员留在现场期间，车队没有移动。

伤者被送上救护车后，救援队立即将他们送往医院。警方留在现场维持交通秩序。因此，部长得以返回车队继续他的公务行程。医疗转运结束后，他才离开。

官方公告重点介绍了部长在事件中的行动。首先，他看到车祸后立即叫停了车队。随后，他勘察了现场并下令立即提供援助。最后，他一直留在现场，直到伤者被送往医院接受治疗。

报道中没有提供受害者人数的信息，也没有透露他们的姓名、年龄和伤情。此外，报道也没有提供他们入院后的病情更新，更没有说明他们被送往哪家医院。

公告未提及事故原因或受害者详情，阿杜尔在医院转院后已恢复公务。

公告中未提供涉事车辆的详细信息，也未说明事故发生经过。但公告证实，此次事故需要警方、救援人员和医护人员的介入，伤者也需要住院治疗。

事故地点位于兰銮路，在班披沙奴洛村对面。事件发生在9月2日，当时部长正在前往公务的途中。事故发生期间，警方疏导交通，医疗队为伤者提供救助。道路也被清理，以降低再次发生事故的风险。

阿杜尔中将强调及时向受灾民众提供援助的重要性。此外，他还呼吁各处理机构之间加强协调。这些指示一直有效，直到伤者被送往医院。之后，部长恢复了原定的工作安排。

最终，路边救援行动虽然延误了部长原定的行程，但并未取消。救援队运送了伤员，警方则控制了事故现场。随后，阿杜尔中将返回车队。待紧急救援工作结束后，他继续行程。
