It looks like it has some kind of a rollbar.

Looks like the front yellow windshield frame?/rollbar completely collapsed.

Unidentified.

No need to carry a license and some ID with him.

I Wager a 'Rushing Russian' been a few on bikes & cars heading North on that road between Patong - Kamala over cooking things last few mths, if its the Big rocks on Kamala side you can hardly miss them, obvs this guy didn't

I drove by the scene the next morning and wondered what had happened. It is the very end of the Patong/Kamala hill road just as you're about to enter Kamala (where the landslide was last November), it's a straight road and I was curious what would cause a one vehicle turnover accident on a dry road (well, bad driving, speed or failed brakes obviously).

 

The jeep looked worse in real life than it appears in the picture. I thought no one would have survived.

How can he be described as 'foreign' if he is unidentified?

Colour of his skin most likely.

Looks like one of those dozen or so rent-a-Jeep tourist douchemobiles I've seen around. There's a yellow one in Patong that stupidly has a big "Tsunami" sticker on either its front or side, wonder (hoping) if it's the same one.....
