On Monday night, rescue workers located the sports utility vehicle of a man from Suphan Buri who drove into the Chao Phraya by accident and drowned last Friday night, in Muang district of Nakhon Sawan.

 

The car was located at a depth of 6 metres, about 150 metres from the riverbank and about 300 metres from the point where it had plunged from the bypass.

 

Police and the rescue workers agreed that they would raise the sunken car from the river bed using empty 200-litre oil drums, then use a rope and backhoe to pull it to the bank.
