A bus driver's three-year-old son was killed in a horror crash on Friday night when he took his family with him to pick up tourists at the airport.

Udomsak Thongorapglgasri, 40, had been driving the yellow double decker from the island of Phuket with his family onboard including wife Warangkul, 38, son Tamanoon and three-month-old daughter Napan.

The driver approached a junction where his coach collided with a pick-up truck before both smashed into power lines and a row of shops at 10pm in popular tourist destination Krabi.

The young son was killed at the scene - with the mother seen holding him in the ambulance - while the three-month-old girl was taken to hospital where she is now recovering.

A 15-year-old bus conductor was also injured.

The pick-up truck driver Viroj Gitjagan, 48, was also killed at the scene while the two other passengers in his vehicle which flipped over were seriously injured and taken to hospital.

Deputy Inspector Panompon Banmat from the police station in the Ao Luek district where the crash happened said: ''''The driver took his family. Later the bus collided at an intersection with the truck. The vehicles hit a shop before colliding with a power pole. The officials will investigate again thoroughly.''
