Drink-drivers and repeat traffic offenders in Thailand could be sent to work in hospital morgues under a new plan by the authorities to try to put a stop to carnage on the country’s roads.

为减少致命交通事故，泰国政府出台新计划，拟派酒驾司机及屡次违反交通法规者去医院太平间工作。

Thailand has the second worst record in the world for traffic fatalities.

泰国的交通事故死亡率高居世界第二。

During the annual Songkran holiday, thousands of Thais take to the road on motorbikes - often without helmets - to return to their home villages from the big cities to reunite with families. Alcohol usually plays a large role in the festivities.

每年泼水节（又称“宋干节”），成千上万生活在大城市的泰国人都会骑摩托返乡，与家人团聚，他们通常不戴安全头盔。而在庆祝重大节日期间，饮酒是必不可少的。

It is estimated that during the “Seven Days of Danger” more than two people die and 160 are injured every hour.

据估计，在这“七日危险期”中，每小时最少有2人丧生，160人受伤。

Amid fears the situation might be getting worse, the government, which earlier this year said drink-drivers could have their cars impounded for the duration of the holiday, last week approved the morgue shock treatment plan.

更令人担心的是，这种情况正不断恶化。泰国政府年初时表示，司机在假日期间酒驾，车辆可能被扣押。而上周，泰国政府批准了将酒驾司机送到太平间的“休克疗法”。
