A brake failure on a crane truck caused it to crash into a power pole, motorbikes, and a pickup truck in Koh Kaew.

the actual cause was not keeping this vehicle properly serviced and maintained - a regular occurrence here

If I ever get in an accident that is my fault in Thailand, I will immediately blame "Brake Failure." 
It works every time, right!  Do what the natives do!  :wink:

I have driven over a 1,000,000 Kilometers in my life. Various vehicles from 6 wheels (32 tons) to small vans and cars and have never had brake failure. I Know  somebody will say you can't drive a 3 axle 6 wheeled vehicle with that weight  but we had special dispensation from the home office.
