Any day is a bad day on the roads.

Chachoengsao in southern Thailand (forum)?

Didn't know I made it that far last time ????

Another accident at U turn, tailing a van at a safe distance in the right hand lane when it suddenly swerved into the middle lane reveling a line of parked cars waiting at the U turn,

No doubt the van didn't indicate or move to middle lane early enough, so many times this could have happened to me and many others.
