PHUKET: -- The driver of a Ford pickup truck escaped with only minor injuries when he crashed his vehicle into a delivery truck parked in front of the SuperCheap store in Koh Kaew in the early hours of this morning. However, the impact of the crash caused the pickup to flip, wiping out several motorbikes in the process.

Lt Col Chalaew Taihoo from Phuket City Police responded to a 191 call at 3am where it was said that a Bangkok registered pickup truck had flipped and hit eight parked motorbikes in front of the Sapam branch of SuperCheap on Thepkassattri Rd, northbound, in Koh Kaew.

Police arrived at the scene with Kusoldharm rescue workers to find a Ford Ranger lying on its side in front of the store along with eight damaged motorbikes.

About 150 metres away was a SuperCheap delivery truck with its rear-end damaged.

Did he get breath tested for alcohol? Will he be going to jail?

This kind of case was shown on Channel nine's the Embassy. Two Aussie guys, drunk, hit a parked car on a scooter. Paid for damages and were threatened with 3 months jail time for drink driving. In the end they were let go. I think the parked car was a police car though, hence the threats. Otherwise, as long as you pay up nothing much more ever happens here in Thailand.

Be glad to get all these Bangkok registered vehicles back into the city then the rest of the country will be a bit safer.

Wow, pretty nasty crash. just like pickup bowling!

8 motorcycles damaged, and likely wrecked, is that

considered a strike? Glad that no one was seriously injured

or killed in this incident.
