AT least 14 people have been killed after a double-decker bus veered off a road and crashed into a tree in Thailand.<\/p>\n
Police fear the driver may have fallen asleep before the deadly smash in Prachuap Khiri Khan province.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Authorities say 49 people were on the bus travelling from the capital, Bangkok, when it swerved off the route to Songkhla province near Hat Wanakorn National Park.<\/p>\n
More than 30 people were rushed to hospital and at least 14 people have been confirmed dead.<\/p>\n
Shocking pictures show the bus tilted to one side with its front against a tree as rescue workers tried to pull survivors from the wreckage.<\/p>\n
Pol. Col. Weerapat Ketesa, the superintendent of the Huay Yang Police Station, said: "We presume the driver might have fallen asleep."<\/p>\n
