[snoop1130]

 

In-bound lanes of the approach to the flyover at the Ram Intra Road intersection have been closed by police since early this morning (Thursday), after a six-wheel truck, belonging to Thailand Post, crashed into a utility pole and tipped onto its side.

 

Police at Kanna Yao police station said that a crane has been arranged to remove the truck, which has been blocking both inbound access lanes to the bridge at the 8km marker on the Ram Intra Road. They said that it could take 3 hours to clear the road.

 

The truck driver, 33-year-old Thanongsak, and his three-year-old daughter both escaped with only minor injuries.

Looking at the picture, it looks like the driver thought flyover was to be taken word by word.
