Navy officer survives brutal car crash in Pathum Thani, BMW left in ruins

[webfact]

 

A 25 year old navy officer, racing in his BMW, crashed into a bridge pillar, trapping him in the driver’s seat. His injuries included serious wounds to his buttocks.

 

Rescue workers rushed to his aid and transported him to a hospital for treatment. The incident occurred today on the inbound Phaholyothin Road in the Prachathipat Subdistrict, Thanyaburi District, Pathum Thani Province.

 

The accident site was near Thanyaluck Institute, about 100 metres away. The bronze BMW with a Bangkok registration plate was severely damaged, from the front bumper to the driver’s door.

The right wheel was dislodged, making it impossible for the driver to exit the vehicle. Volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation in Pathum Thani Province had to use special equipment to cut him out, a process that took approximately 10 minutes, reported KhaoSod.

He should stick to sailing the seas and not driving on the roads.

If you have a kid that is mega immature, super spoiled, using Coke and is "mad about driving", to survive the 17yo - 25yo age. Buying them a Merc, BMW or Volvo etc is one expensive way to try and keep them alive. Red Bull's Boss ran over a cop on his scooter, and his Ferrari dragged the dead cop over 200m to his home, try that in your Honda Jazz! 

 

In biological terms, his escape is just a father trying to insure his (defective?) seed/genes are spread as far as possible, by protecting his son, as do most primates.

Where is the bronze car mentioned in the report. 

I can only see a silver one.

Hopefully this voids his insurance. However, it seems here you could be drunk as a skunk and cause a 10 car pile up and they'll still pay out...
