An incident occurred on the morning of 19 May, when a 10-wheel truck transporting cattle collided with the rear of an 18-wheeler truck carrying animal feed. The crash resulted in the death of one individual and left another seriously injured.

 

The incident took place at approximately 06:00 on Rama II Road, outbound at kilometre marker 51, in the leftmost parallel lane near Moo 2, Na Khok subdistrict, Mueang district, Samut Sakhon province.

 

Police Lieutenant Sukkrit Suriwong, Investigating Officer at Bang Thorat Police Station, was alerted to the crash and immediately dispatched a rescue team from the Samut Sakhon Charity Foundation along with emergency medical responders. On arrival, they discovered a Hino 10-wheel truck, registered in Phetchaburi, fully loaded with cattle, which had slammed into the rear of an 18-wheeler from Nakhon Pathom. The trailer had overturned, spilling numerous sacks of animal feed across the road.

 

Two people were trapped inside the cattle truck, the driver and a passenger. Rescue workers used hydraulic cutting equipment to extricate them. The driver was critically injured and received first aid at the scene before being rushed to Mahachai 1 Hospital. Unfortunately, the front-seat passenger had sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. It reportedly took emergency crews around 30 minutes to retrieve the body from the wreckage.

 

According to eyewitnesses, the 18-wheeler had been preparing to turn into a nearby factory when the crash occurred. A loud bang was heard as the rear of the lorry was struck with such force that the trailer flipped onto its side. Witnesses immediately contacted the police.

 

Relatives of the victims stated that the cattle truck had been travelling back to Phetchaburi after purchasing cattle in the northeastern region of Thailand.

 

Police have since collected evidence from the scene and taken witness statements. Further investigations will involve questioning the drivers and examining CCTV footage from the area to determine the exact cause of the crash and to pursue any necessary legal action.

There's definitely a measure of irony in this accident.
