Yes agree.

 

The extraction pictures are very unpleasant and not suitable for this forum. 
 

No signs of fire, and as with many road accidents in Thailand, no fire truck or firefighting equipment deployed, for any fire risk.

That old saying of he ‘Wrapped it round a lamppost’ here is the proof in picture, literally!
