Phu Wiang police in Muang district of the northern Thai city of Nan were called to a collision between two pick-ups outside the Wiang Kaew Hotel in Fai Kaew sub-district.

 

Police said an Isuzu had suddenly pulled out in the path of a Mitsubishi.

 

Both vehicles were so badly damaged that they were immovable.

Long before CCTV, there were conclusive accident investigations based on tire marks, traffic signs/lights, speed calculation, witnesses, right-of-way rules and so many other factors.

 

Oh, by the way, it was a joke....
