A truck driver claimed he was cut off by a pickup truck after crashing into several roadside vendors at a Sri Racha market and killing one migrant worker.

 

Bowin Police were notified of the accident on the 331 Road in the Bowin sub-district of Sri Racha district, Chonburi, last night near midnight, June 8th. The officers rushed to the accident scene with Ban Bueng rescuers.

 

At the market, police found a white Isuzu 4-wheeled truck surrounded by stalls and items that had been knocked over by the vehicle. The truck was damaged on the front. Four people (three females and one male) were injured by the accident and were transported to Laemchabang Hospital.

It's a truly terrible road. They've been building massive overhead flyovers in that area for what seems like decades, but there are all sorts of detours, chicanes, and bumpy ruined sections of the original road.

 

Not difficult for anyone to make a mistake and cause an accident. The locals have been complaining about it for years with the usual lack of success.

You have to drive according to the conditions.

 

Most thais don’t.

If you park your business on the side of a busy road expect a drive-through on occasions.

On the bright side, the gas cannester did not explode !

Unfortunately, upper floors can become lower floors very quickly.

Truck hit all those vendors rather than hit the pick up truck. I see it everyday, mostly not bothering to press brake just move to left or right instead.
