Miracle escape as pick-up driver walks away from this!

[webfact]

Picture:: Daily News

 

Daily News called it a miracle. 

 

Wisarut, 22, lost control of his pick-up on a bend in Prachinburi central Thailand and wrapped his vehicle round a power pole. 

 

Yet he walked away with minor injuries. 

 

Srimahaphot police at the scene had to ask the electrical authorities to turn off supply after a box was demolished in the accident yesterday. 

 

It is an accident blackspot.

 

Police are interviewing the driver once more.

 

ASEAN NOW notes that miracles need to be verified by the Vatican and this can take some time, especially at Christmas.

Thailand is an accident Black spot

[bobandyson]

Are Thai cars magnetic? Again and again we see that poles attract.

I can't see the trucks reg no in the picture, or should I just use the 199 I can see for the lottery?

Everywhere is a black spot for Thai drivers ! I wonder what the excuse will be next year , we have worn out brake fail , trees on the line and elephants crossing , barriers coming down at the wrong time at crossings.

Could be snow on the road but deffo. not up here.

He must have been wearing his lucky amulet...!!!

 

Maybe they should start hanging an amulet around every power pole that is near a road in Thailand. That way the drivers might start missing them.

looks like a heavily modified saloon

 

I wonder what speed this idiot was doing

Amazing how pick up trucks love (power) pole dance in this country !!!

The Vatican has already responded by rejecting the proposal:

"The guy got out of the car walking, not flying.".. Pope said.

OK, what kind of pickup is it? That is at the top of my list to buy.

Assuming that you're not being sarcastic, what evidence is there that this pickup was a "heavily modified saloon"?

[Confuscious]

Where is the picture of the "Miraculous Amulet" that saved the driver's life?

No the latest is mistaking the accelerator pedal for the brake apparently, according to recent accident reports.

It could've been worse .

He's lucky that the power pole was there to stop him.????

[Stargeezr]

Wow, that is one pickup that will not be repaired. I guess only the engine and tires 

are all that could be resold. Lucky driver.

He must have been wearing the pickup truck version of this.
