webfact Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Video: Thai driver came out of the soi a little too fast..... Picture: Sanook CCTV footage from the north of Thailand showed a six wheel truck laden with tables and chairs for a party come out of a side soi. Workers are casually sitting on top of all the temporary furniture. As the vehicle emerges onto the main road several items - and one of the workers - are unceremoniously deposited on the tarmac. The incident happened in Bunkert sub-district of Phayao on Wednesday. Sanook called it a warning to drivers about loads. It might also be a warning about sitting atop those loads....

mauGR1 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Wow.. nice to see the guy in the yellow shirt doing the right thing, stopping the motorbike and protect the injured and the site of the accident.. there is some hope at the end of the tunnel, after all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overherebc Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 The art lies in not spilling your beer while falling off the truck. That gets a 12 out of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was parked in the shade talking on his phone, saw the lorry coming from behind, moved just over the corner to clear the way for the lorry, parked again and went on talking.

hotchilli Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 We have an establishment that does these catering parties near my home. Almost every morning I see two lorries laden with equipment topped with workers going off to a venue all precariously mounted in the back... followed by pick-up's with table tops & chairs, god forbid if they ever had to brake quickly or hit something, the carnage would be mind boggling.
