Yup...  If the truck was parked up for the night (as it seems) - no lights, quite dangerous. 

 

That said, it continually astonishes me how many motorcyclists (and drivers) will drive straight into a stationary object....  the utter lack of attention and total disregard for their own safety is mind boggling.... 

 

Whats the betting - No helmet and booze involved ?

And/or a mobile phone.

not another thai driving incident !!!  truck has no lights on ????  or/and maybe the bike rider the same - common for thai  drivers!!

As he had no ID, is it safe to assume he had no license? Not that a license would stop this from happening....

Or parked totally off the road.

Yes.  Tree branches on the road.  International warning sign of "Stationary Vehicle Ahead".  Guess they don't sell Safety triangles, or road flares, or orange collapsible cones, or flashing emergency flashlights where this guy lives.  And, how much did the bike rider have to drink prior to his ride?  Just asking.
