Police and divers knew about the pickup truck (left) but the Honda came as a surprise.

PHUKET: -- Police and divers who went to a lake in Baan Manik, Thalang, yesterday (July 7) to investigate a report that a pick-up truck had overshoot a sharp curve near The Valley Village, got more than the bargained for.

While retrieving the sunken Mitsubishi pick up truck with a crane, divers from the Kusoldharm Foundation were surprised to discover another vehicle resting in the watery grave – an old Honda Civic.

Both vehicles were old models with minor damage to their exteriors. The Honda Civic looked like it had been up to its arches in mud at the bottom of the lake for quite some time.

No bodies were found in the vehicles, which are now drying out at Thalang Police Station while police try to identify the owners and figure out what happened in each case.

No mystery at all.

Both cars were driven by skilled Thai drivers, probably drunk........missed the road and went in the lake.

Now.....we can't loose face.......I suggest the police check if the second vehicle was reported as stolen.............
