A road safety programme has been launched to promote the use of bicycles as a means of transport in tribute to the ophthalmologist who was run over by a motorcycle at a zebra crossing in Bangkok early this year.
The campaign was opened on Sept 1 with parents of the late doctor, Waraluck Supawatjariyakul, unveiling billboards trumpeting the "Rabbit Crossing" project across Bangkok. Rabbit translates into Thai as kratai which is also Dr Waraluck's nickname.
