Is that the best excuse you can come up with , what about telling the truth, going too fast in the rain and could not stop.

I can't make any sense out of that statement. Surely if he couldn't brake in time he would of hit the vehicle that cut in front of him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaaKap Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 No matter how I try to validate this story in my mind it does not make sense. Another tragic minivan outcome. RIP Sathu. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussieroaming Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Drive according to the prevailing conditions, as the saying goes. The media could make a new TV series for international audiences, something like "Thai Death Roads". The driver's here are pretty ordinary.
