Suspected Brake Failure Causes Seven-Vehicle Prachin Buri Collision

Five people were injured when a trailer truck suspected of suffering brake failure crashed into six other vehicles on Highway 304 in Prachin Buri. The collision occurred on a wet, steep and sharply curving downhill section of the Bangkok-bound carriageway in Na Di district. Seven vehicles were involved, and rescue workers used hydraulic equipment to free one seriously injured person trapped inside a truck cab. Both directions of the highway were temporarily closed as crews cleared damaged vehicles, oil, debris and compressed paper bales scattered across the road. The area is a recognised accident hotspot that has reportedly recorded at least 18 major crashes and more than 60 deaths over the past decade.

And I bet the bs brake failure excuse was used in many of the other instances.

Typical excuse for Thais, I have been driving over 60 years, owned dozens of cars, and have never, never had a brake failure……….if all the accidents blaming ‘brake failure’ had video coverage in the cabin, they will fid that the driver fell asleep………Peace

That's probably because you service your car regularly, many Thais don't. That does result in brake failure. Falling asleep at the wheel is (nearly) the same, failing to brake.

At least this time it wasn't the cat.
