A shocking lorry collision resulting in a fatality occurred on the Asia Highway, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province, when a pickup driver lost control of his steering wheel due to a sudden jolt. The impact was captured on the lorry’s dash-cam.

 

At approximately 1.30am today authorities in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya received a report of a fatal car accident on the outbound section of the Asia Highway, around the 23-kilometre marker. The incident occurred in the Hantara district. Officer Kamphol Inteewong immediately attended the scene alongside the Puttaisawanh Foundation, a local support organisation.

 

Upon their arrival, they discovered a yellow Mitsubishi pickup truck, with registration plate 4153 Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, on the grassy verge at the side of the highway. The vehicle had sustained significant damage. Inside, they found the deceased body of 29 year old Aekarin Srisaohea from Udon Thani province. Due to the force of the impact, his body was trapped inside the vehicle, requiring rescue workers to use extraction equipment to remove him, reported KhaoSod.

A little bit of inconsistency in the story.  The lorry driver said he got out and found the pickup lodged in the rear of his vehicle.  Yet the vehicles were found 200 meters apart.
