Jonathan Fairfield Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Video: What amulet was she wearing?! Thai woman in miraculous escape Image: Sanook A Thai woman crossing the road in Korat had a miracle escape after a car ploughed into two vehicles making a U-Turn. The woman, unidentified but aged about 50, had just got off a "song thaew" and was in the central reservation waiting to cross. CCTV showed a black car collide at high speed with other vehicles and miss her. She walked off without so much as a graze. The accident occurs at about 1.50 of a clip lasting just over two minutes. A local called Prasit, 55, working at the scene of the accident on the Ratchasima to Jakrat Road on Saturday evening said that he heard the screeching of brakes and looked up. He couldn't believe it as the woman walked away unscathed. Sanook did not yet catch up with the woman which is a pity. Thaivisa would love to know what amulet she was wearing. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2017-09-11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckamuck Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Don't know about the amulet but I am sure she is not wearing the same underwear anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmaxdan Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 It looks to me like the lamp post that saved her, not an amulet. She probably went off in search of the first lottery ticket seller she could find..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfdgfdfdgs Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Skip to 1:50 for the impact. I don't understand what the black car is trying to do, overtake on the outside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfdgfdfdgs Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 But to start with the car at fault is in a good position, they're not in the outside lane. Then they inexplicably go out of their lane to try and squeeze between a gap where there is no gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only explanation I can think of which explains the deviation from the central lane along with making no attempt to slow down...

Or how about the driver suffered a medical issue such a a stroke, heart attack or a seizure, it's not unusual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they inexplicably go out of their lane to try and squeeze between a gap where there is no gap. Almost as if the driver was deliberately trying to take her out. But I'm guessing the driver dropped their mobile phone and was picking it up. I can't think of any other rational explanation. Did I just write rational?

wavemanwww Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Give all Thai drivers a push bike. If they last a year without falling off then give them a small car and so on and so on Will move national death toll to number 3 in the world. That's a lot of lives saved and affected family and friends from the existing system where brain dead morons can drive vans. trucks, coaches etc.? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
