Emergency responders were notified of the accident early this morning (February 4th) on the Krating Lai – Rayong (Number 36) Road in the Pong sub-district. They arrived at the scene to find two damaged trailer trucks on the road. One of the trailer truck drivers, Mr. Somjai Salapa, 42, was stuck inside the cab of his vehicle. It took about ten minutes to free him and he was taken to a local hospital. The second truck driver, who was not identified, was uninjured.

jacko45k Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I often wonder in these circumstances if the parked vehicles are parked up illegally, like on a clearway or motorway, one often sees this when driving. (Sometimes at night too, with little or no lighting). Many countries require by law you place warning triangles behind you. Of course it does not excuse the driver of the other vehicle running into something stationary..... Just another example of an accident that could easily have been avoided with a measure of caution. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
