webfact Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Miracle escape! Thai driver stops for an early morning snooze - then this happens Picture: Sanook A Phichit man stopped for an early morning snooze after he had been visiting relatives in the Bang Rakam district of Phitsanulok in the north of Thailand. Sanook said that Santi, 29, was tired after a drinking session and decided to pull over five meters from a bridge. He was on his way home. His four door Isuzu pick-up was slammed into by a 22 wheel truck trailer that propelled his vehicle onto the bridge and crushed it against the side of the bridge. The incident happened on Route 117, the Phitsanulok to Nakhon Sawan Road, around 6.30 am yesterday. Santi had to be cut out of the wreckage but only suffered a minor injury to his left leg and some whiplash. Sanook called it miraculous. He was taken to Naraesuan University Hospital. Bang Rakam police are investigating.

richard_smith237 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) What more can you say...... I refer to an old acronym I was taught when I first arrived.... T.I.T. !!!! This story has total and utter fv<kwittery written all over it !!!! - Drunk Guy decides to sleep it off (feel asleep and cam to a halt at the side of the rd?) - or pull over to sleep it off in an extremely idiotic location - Lorry driver can’t keep to his lane Again, yet another situation involving two halfwits. If just one of the parties involved had not been a complete and total halfwit no incident would have taken place at all !!!!

Mick501 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Hopefully he learns from this and in future stops his car in the centre lane when he is drunk and in need of a snooze. Geez, no common sense stopping in the break down lane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stouricks Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 And what was the truck driver doing, encroaching onto the hard shoulder. What if the pick-up had simply broken down, as it's driver possibly had. Who's fault then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreasyFingers Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 If he was off the left lane how does the truck hit him, or was the truck drunk too. If there is a bridge the road is probably straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardinalblue Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Poor place to park - karma I wonder if he had his parking lights on which I doubt....one of my pet gripes - the # of drivers here who drive with only their parking lights on during early evening or early mornings hours... cultural habit over common sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he drove for a while then decided he was too drunk to drive and had a snooze on the edge of a highway. Why not stop at a petrol station? Snooze there.
