aussienam Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Let's see if a proper forensic examination is made to check all braking components. Wondering if police here carry that out like in other countries? Or because no serious injuries/death it's handed back to insurance to use one of their contracted mechanics to do the investigation? (Hoping no brown envelopes). Also crash scene, skid marks on road to show where brakes applied? Or none at all? Dash cam footage and CCTV? Witnesses? Also wondering if police will check driver's phone records to see if in a call, texting, etc and whether any hands-free systems were in place? I am paranoid at lights and when turning with oncoming vehicles here. So many drivers on their phones and being distracted as well as speeding.

NoDisplayName Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 None of the above. I would blame a temporary localized disruption in the coefficient of friction, in other words a disturbance in the force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geisha Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 That road is a race track , and the stupid intersection between Thappraya and Thepprasit and the concrete separation in the middle of the road is unbelievable. Also , Why oh why don’t people respect the red lights. Totally dangerous everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at that damage speed and lousy driving was the cause. Well it was brake failure... The brakes failed to stop them in time. It doesn't matter how fast they were going, braking distances, or how late they braked - the brakes didn't do the job the driver wanted them to do, ergo its the fault of the brakes !!!!! You really can't make up the extent of juvenile thought process that goes on here to avoid accountability and responsibility. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually its a case of driving like a tƜat, then when the realisation that a self induced collision is imminent belatedly dawns- stamping on the brake - which achieved no determent to the collision ergo the brakes 'failed' (in what they were asked of them to achieve ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
