[Jonathan Fairfield]

 

A 60-year-old driver became stuck inside his cab after two trailer trucks collided at a highway police checkpoint in Mueang Chonburi district.

 

Emergency responders were notified of the accident earlier this week on the Bypass Road in the Baan Suan sub-district.

 

The first response teams arrived at the scene to find two damaged trailer trucks on the road before a highway police checkpoint.

"A car in front of me had immediately stopped before the highway police checkpoint."

That was a driver seeking an escape route

Once happened in front of me when a pickup suddenly did a sharp left to some dirt road.

“A car in front of me had immediately stopped before the highway police checkpoint. As a result, I immediately stopped too. The trailer truck behind me driven by Mr. Prasit crashed into the back of my truck."

 

Learn from the mistakes of others; do not stop for police checkpoints, in fact speed up so you don't get hit from behind. ????

Or follow a safe distance from the vehicle in front . Most do not do that here although  it is a  common problem all over the globe .

How do those 'first responders' earn their money and are they trained in first aid?
