bloodyholly Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Around 1:15 pm driving to Patong, amazed to see a pick-up on its roof at the exit of the Caltex gas station in Kathu, does anyone have any idea how the driver managed to pull such an amazing feat? I should have stopped for a photo. Anyone have a picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Here's one from about a year ago, Lamphun Road Chiang Mai near the Nong Hoi market. It's impossible to do more than 40 km/hr there, the female driver apparently claimed she fell asleep. No other vehicle involved, SMH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shot Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) I know I'm blowing smoke here in Thailand, but a car seat would have saved that boys life. Edited November 1, 2020 by Shot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would careful driving.......and the excuse given was:- the driver suddenly lost control of the truck which spun and overturned. What nonsense. Very difficult to suddenly lose control if driving carefully and in the speed limit. RIP young lad. Edited November 1, 2020 by xylophone 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravip Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Those drivers must be very experienced and expert mobike riders. Kind of did a wheelie by habit, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnray Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 It's tough driving slowly in a straight line in the most perfect daylight possible. Sometimes you just flip the car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
