A devastating road crash in Prachinburi province has claimed the lives of a mother and daughter after an 18-wheeler lorry crushed their motorcycle at a three-way junction. The victims’ grieving relatives collapsed in tears upon arriving at the scene.

So sad but these 18 wheelers go far too fast in built up areas while the police don't really care
