A rescue unfolded on the morning of November 21, when a foreign man was found unconscious in his car, which had been left idling in gear, requiring response teams to gain entry to reach him.

 

At approximately 10:30 the Sawang Boriboon Pattaya Rescue Unit received a report of an unconscious man trapped inside a vehicle near the Department of Land intersection on Pattaya Third Road, Nong Prue, Bang Lamung District, Chonburi.

 

Upon arrival, a white Mazda car with Bangkok registration was found parked close to the sidewalk with its engine running and the gear in drive. Inside, the driver, a described as a long-haired foreign man aged approximately 30-35, was found unconscious. Initial attempts to wake him by shaking the car and shouting proved unsuccessful, prompting the team to gain entry into the locked car.

 

During this time responders were attempting to gain access, the driver moved and accidentally pressed the accelerator, causing the car to mount the sidewalk and crash into a utility pole. 

 

The rescue team used their equipment to finally access the car. The man was extracted safely but as he regained some consciousness, he appeared disoriented and unable to respond to inquiries. He was promptly transported to a hospital for further evaluation and treatment.

 

Authorities are continuing their investigation into the incident and to identify the driver.

To you, yes, no surprise there, but why "drunk" and why a "nut case"?
