They discovered a six-wheeled Isuzu lorry, registration number 70-4271 Chaiyaphum, had collided with a four-wheeled passenger vehicle, a Suzuki with the registration number 7ย-9301 Bangkok. The rear of the smaller vehicle was severely crushed, with its roof caved in and the seats destroyed.

The cab on the Suzuki seems to be intact , so maybe the deceased person was a passenger in the rear , more outstanding reporting where you have to work things out for yourself, and I cannot believe the drivers admitted they were sleepy , regards worgeordie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the reporter in his slightly confusing account by "roof" means the structure on the right of the Suzuki, and that the unfortunate lady was sitting in the bed of the Suzuki under said roof. RIP poor lady, what a bad luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
