Popular Post webfact Posted August 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2023 A collision occurred between a Yala to Bangkok express train and a pickup truck, resulting in the vehicle being seriously damaged but the driver, a corrections officer, miraculously survived unscathed. The collision involved train number 170, the rapid service from Yala to Bangkok, originating from three border provinces in the south. The train collided with a Toyota pickup truck, license plate number 3744, in Songkhla near the railway crossing at Ban Kuan Mee, just before reaching Kuan Mee railway station. The force of the train collision sent the truck flying to the side of the railway, destroying the entire right side of the vehicle. The driver, Sarawut Suwanaphum, 44 years old, a corrections officer from Na Thawi prison, astonishingly escaped without a scratch. He was found sitting in his seat in the wrecked vehicle. The train, on the other hand, suffered negligible damage and was able to continue its journey to the Hat Yai junction station as scheduled. However, railway officials had to thoroughly inspect the locomotive for safety. by Samantha Rose Photo courtesy of Sanook Full story: https://thethaiger.com/news/national/miracle-escape-as-officer-survives-yala-bangkok-train-collision-unharmed -- The Thaiger 2023-08-30 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.
