Popular Post webfact Posted October 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2022 Picture: Thai Rath Dash cam footage from the front and rear of a vehicle was posted on the Facebook page of an engineer, reported Thai Rath yesterday. It showed a pick-up pull out to overtake then lose control as it passed. It ended up in the klong. It happened on Thursday morning in Phanat Nikhom, Chonburi in eastern Thailand. Anusorn, 38, said he was on his way to work. He had earlier posted: "Drive carefully, don't be impatient". He said that he looked in his rear view mirror and the other driver appeared frustrated that he was going slowly. He revved up to pass but lost control on the potholed road. Anusorn said that he stopped to render assistance but there were plenty of other people on the scene who were repairing the klong so he left. Chonnawee, 27, said that he jumped into the water with a backhoe driver to rescue the motorist who was uninjured. They opened the door to free him and then watched as the pick-up sank beneath the water. The driver called insurance and arranged for a flat bed truck to take away the damaged vehicle for repairs. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-10-15 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

I am sooooooooooooooooo cool, like the other side of the pillow. Now who's going to pay for this damage!!! Falang bad luck. Amulet bad luck. Road bad. I no no pay I no no...... Why you keep driving!!! I can't swim!!!! Stop!!!! Funny how he keeps driving. In the interview, he's not taking the blame or admitting fault. Then he might say something about rain, but I'm not 100% fluent in Thai!!!

Make an impression. And it did. Where could he know from that rear powered empty vehicles have some weird tendencies. Especially on leaf springs with a ladder chassis. They’re not the IRS of the likes of my previous BMW M3 I track day in U.K. The pretensions so many have her that a pickup can be transformed into a performance vehicle by lowering the suspension and putting a "whistling" exhaust system on (often defined by the black soot all over the tailgate! ????) Risible ignorance. 5 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wiggy Posted October 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2022 ???? Looks like there was plenty or room to overtake, but he just couldn’t do it without showing off. This is often the case with these tarted-up pick ups with pea-brained drivers. Som nam na. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter zwart Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 (edited) The fact that these pick up <deleted> drive themselves to pieces really doesn't interest me at all. But in many cases they also involve innocent road users. This video is therefore a good start to my day. No innocent victims.

Yeah hitting the throttle in that loose gravel was always going to induce oversteer which can have unpleasant results if the vehicle operator is caught off guard.
