Police were called after a red plate Pajero Sport ended up in a huge hole. 

 

It appears that the two meter hole that swallowed the brand new 1.3 to 1.5 million baht vehicle was made by a burst water pipe.

 

Ruam Katanyu rescue foundation said that motorists would have been unaware there was a hole as there was a lot of water gushing out that concealed it.

 

The incident happened yesterday evening on the Pathum Thani to Sam Khok road near the Shell gas station.

 

Sam Khok police are investigating.

Too bad actually, as this way local government never has an incentive to maintain their roads. Get local government to pay the costs, plus the hospital bill, plus a lawsuit with compensation, and maybe, maybe they wil start considering maintenance.

Just dipping the head light... I'll get my hat.

He was lucky. I just had a leak in the mains outside my place, and when they came to fix it they made ME pay for the repair ????

Is that guy in the blue jacket saying mind that water covered hole ... ahhh to late plop ????

 

there was a small burst pipe in a soi near my place last year, just watching the 2, sometimes 3, workers plus boss to video, photograph and do nothing else, on the job it was no surprise it took four visits to actually get the job done properly.

This must be their latest model in road vehicle .
