A pickup truck driver in Chon Buri lost control of his vehicle and crashed into a wall and a signpost, causing the truck to overturn and injuring two people inside. The incident took place on Soi Chaiyaphon Withi 13, near a flour and starch manufacturing company in Nong Prue Subdistrict, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri Province. Emergency services promptly responded to the scene to assist the accident victims.

 

The damaged Chevrolet pickup truck, with Chon Buri license plate number ผษ7391, was found overturned on its side beside the road. The impact destroyed a 10-metre stretch of wall and snapped a warning sign pole. The wreckage also caused a significant amount of engine oil to leak onto the road surface.

 

An investigation revealed that two people were injured and trapped inside the vehicle. Suriraya, a 24 year old man, and Pim Siri, his 24 year old girlfriend, were quickly rescued by the emergency responders. The injured individuals received preliminary medical treatment before being urgently transported to a nearby hospital for further care.

I do like the fact that the original article (as copied above) blurs out the license plate in the photo but then writes it in the story anyway.

Quite, a 24 year old with little road sense.

Gotta get those all important lotto numbers.

Suriraya wanted to impress Pim Siri with his racing skills.

Went wrong.

Will she rethink the relation?

Will he learn anything from it?

Speed is the major cause of deaths/injuries in road traffic accidents.  If only Pattaya police had CCTV cameras...

Useless warning sign. Didn't work, someone should be pointing at it in accusation.

Just another example of the total lack of logic here. The way that Thais think is far beyond anything we will ever be able to understand. They live in a different universe.
