Not even close...

 

The current record holder is forty-seven (47) downed poles from one single accident.

 

Bang Phli, Samut Prakan, 1 August 2015.

The real question is whether the power poles acted in individual volition to wreck the van or was it a conspiracy.

Either way it's scary.

 

From now on I will avoid any Thai roads with power poles lurking nearby.

(the jury is still out on whether roadside trees also harbor such vicious intentions).

If you are going to do a job do it right.

its a new game called TEN PIN POLING !!!!!
