HE Chanthol said that the reasons there have been many road accidents in Cambodia are mainly due to drivers, especially those heavy trucks drivers who do not have proper driving skills or the wrong type of driver’s license.

“That is why we decided to establish this centre, hoping it will mitigate those issues,” he added.

HE Chanthol also requested an end to overweight trucks, as they can seriously damage the roads.
