Two brothers were killed when their pickup truck hit a roadside power pole as they were on their way to Nakhon Ratchasima provincial hospital early Tuesday.
 

Police said Oon Priewkrathok, 61, and Suwat Priewkrathok, 40, were in the front seats of the pickup truck when it hit the power pole on the Chokchai-Ratchasima road in Chokchai district at 5.10am.

 

Their family said Oon was taking Suwat to the provincial hospital in the Muang district.

 

Police said the rear right tyre of the pickup apparently burst, causing the driver to lose control before the pickup crashed into the pole.

With that sort of damage, I think it is probable they were traveling at excessive speed...

Yes, I had a rear tire exploding (twice the same day) with my 4x4 I never drive to fast so I could really control the car to the  safe Side of the road and changed to the spare one (which exploded to later on that day....)

Another sad Thai road story - RIP victims -  perhaps a little proactive maintenance could have prevented this?  Certainly travelling at speed. Am I hallucinating or is that a creepy gargoyle looking statue sitting atop the wreckage?
