A young man driving a modified pickup truck lost control at a sharp curve, crashing into a utility pole and died at the scene. The incident occurred around 10:00 on October 20, on Samo Thong Road, near Soi Samo Thong 9, in Chanthaburi province.

 

Police from the Mueang Chanthaburi Police Station, doctors from Phra Pok Klao Hospital, and volunteers from the Sawang Katanyu Chanthaburi Rescue Foundation were dispatched to the site of the crash. Upon arrival, they found the wreckage of a black, modified Toyota pickup truck with license plate from Chanthaburi. The vehicle had veered off the road at a sharp bend and crashed into the base of a utility pole. The driver’s side of the truck was heavily damaged, with the bonnet forced open by the impact. A street sign near the pole had also been knocked down and was lying next to the vehicle.

 

 

Inside the wrecked truck, rescue workers discovered the body of a 24-year-old man, later identified as Mr. Watcharaphon (surname withheld), a resident of Tha Chang, Chanthaburi. His body was pinned against the driver’s side door due to the force of the collision. Rescue personnel had to use hydraulic tools to carefully extract his body from the wreckage.

 

Authorities observed long skid marks, about 20 to 30 metres in length, on the road, indicating that the driver had attempted to brake before the crash.

 

Preliminary investigations revealed that Mr. Watcharaphon had just left a friend’s house in Tha Chang municipality and was heading home, where he operated a small grocery store located about 2 kilometres from the accident site. As he approached the sharp curve, he lost control of his vehicle, which then slammed into the utility pole, resulting in his death.

 

Police are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the accident.
