Many questions were asked, 

But was the driver asked how he lost control of the car? 

Had he or the car been out drinking :whistling:

I ask about the car as every time you read about these incidents, it's the cars fault

Why do you want taxi drivers and insurance companies cleaned out of Thailand?

Only the mafia taxi's that won't use the meter and the one's who threaten passengers with machetes and knives,  and the insurance companies in Thailand who won't pay on accident claims as witnessed many many times as they always make up an excuse why they won't pay. 

That's why I added those two occupations / services.

Always because the claims are for injuries or situations that are not covered, those are reasons, not "excuses".  Somewhere in the region of 90% of all insurance claims are paid out by insurers.

I can understand someone losing control of their horse .... or a dog, or their bladder, or losing control driving on ice or snow.  But driving on an inner city road when it's not even rained for 2 months?
