Thai media Daily News reported on a road accident yesterday that posed many questions as to what had transpired.

 

It was reported on the JS100 radio page on Twitter and showed a car with its wheels pointing skywards wrapped around a lamppost.

 

In addition a police van had been rear ended with the result being a collision with a roadside tree.

It all happened at about 12.30 pm on the Klong Thaweewattana Road in the Bang Khae district of Bangkok.

 

The police didnt have far to travel to try and get to the bottom of the carnage - it happened opposite the Saladaeng police station. 

 

Daily News had no word on fatalities or injuries - just that the police were investigating.

A long straight road, in daylight, not raining. And still Thais manage to try and drive up a roadside pole.
