Rescue workers had to remove the driver from the vehicle.

Looking at the photo, that's understandable.

Probably not much left of the driver...

Good he didnt take anyone with him on his way out.

As I read this I can hear the dulcet tones of a police whistle due to one person running a light and anther one pre-empting the light with predictable consequences.

 

A lot of people are just ignoring the cop as well.

 

Every day a nightmare on Phuket's roads.

RIP, and he wasn’t even 25 yet
