Crispy critter!  There's something about Thai power poles that attracts vehicles.  Considering that the electricity is alternating current, I wonder if half the crashes are on each side of the road.

Maybe these poles are creating some sort of electro magnetism ?

Before that, the 34-year-old victim told rescuers that his six-wheeler’s tires suddenly exploded and caused him to lose control of the vehicle. 

 

Never mind Tires blowing . If more then one tire blows on the Duals then there's a great possibility that the driver Never checked his tires before starting his road trip.

Never mind the driver will tell a story what can be believed or not.

If they just put all of them near the middle of the road,  drivers could see and avoid them.
