Georgealbert Posted January 10 Posted January 10 Picture from responders. At approximately 10:30 on 10 January, a road traffic collision occurred at the Phalad Intersection in Phra Bat subdistrict, Mueang Lampang district. A six-wheeled truck driver, carrying steel lost control, overturned, and crashed into a car waiting at a red light, resulting in multiple injuries. Emergency response teams, including rescue units from Lampang Hospital, the Lampang Rescue Association, and officers from Mueang Lampang Police Station, were quickly dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, authorities discovered the overturned six-wheeled Hino truck, registered in Lampang, with its load of steel beams scattered across the road. The crash caused extensive damage, including oil leaking and debris strewn over the area, as well as a broken utility pole blocking the road. Three people from the truck were found injured at the scene: 1. A man, 45 years old, who was the truck driver, was thrown from the vehicle and found on the central reservation. He suffered facial injuries. 2. Mr. Kornwich Kanthana, 30, who had been sitting in the middle seat, was conscious but sustained facial injuries, a head wound, and complained of arm pain. 3. Mr. Anusak Wongkaenchan, 32, the passenger seated by the door, suffered abrasions, a head wound, and back pain. All three injured individuals were promptly transported to Lampang Hospital for emergency treatment. The truck also collided with a black Mazda car registered in Bangkok, causing significant damage to the front of the car. The driver of the car stated that they had been stationary at a red light when the truck suddenly crashed into them. Fortunately, the driver escaped uninjured but remained visibly shaken by the incident. Preliminary investigations suggest the truck had been travelling downhill from Doi Phra Bat towards Mae Mo district when its brakes failed. This caused the driver to lose control, veer off course, hit a utility pole, and crash into the car. Lampang police officers examined the scene and the investigation is ongoing, to determine the precise cause of the incident. -- 2025-01-11 1

Briggsy Posted January 11 Posted January 11 Are those the traffic lights in the distance? He must have been going at quite a speed to finish up so far away if that is the case.
