Popular Post Mr Vice Posted April 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2022 How in God's name do they manage to crash head on? The standard of driving here beggars belief, it isn't just at Songkhran either! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_smith237 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 One of them (Box) truck on the wrong side of the road. Either driving too fast and skidding across the road, or simply on wrong side of the road. Tragic if it was the innocent party who was killed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me from the damage that the driver on the wrong side of the road was the one killed. That's fine by me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a solid yellow line that both vehicles are on the left of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainman34014 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 When it's wet they need no other excuse. They can't drive properly when it's dry and perfect driving conditions ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 More like Brain failure. Likely the rain will be the blame, for slippery roadway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived in Houston Texas when a freak freeze broke watermains under roads. Citizens not being used to driving on ice, it turned into a mass collision. Since it never rains here the drivers were not accustomed to careful driving on wet roads. Simple misunderstanding. Of course it happens here daily on dry roads but that's not relevant.
