seahorse Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Two accidents in one day! That must be some kind of record. It shows just how dangerous Thailand's roads are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertthebruce Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Unfortunately we are all used to this kind of Scenario, Sad but true.... Driving here is a Nightmare for me, I avoid it as much as possible..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keesters Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I hope they manage to find the pickup and CCTV images. I am amazed at how people ignore emergency vehicles here carrying on as if they weren't there or sneaking in behind them to try and take advantage of them speeding/jumping lights etc. But then I've heard rumors that emergency vehicles also use the siren and lights when it's time to go off shift or to lunch. RIP the unlucky lady. Nurses get well soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I thought this was true I would live life with total reckless abandon. Perhaps killing you in a high speed crash that would have been predetermined whether I did this or not. It can't be both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgordo38 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 RIP. One thing life has taught me is that some days you just cannot catch a break or win. In your case sadly it was terminal. Somedays I think life is like a lottery and your number comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dick dasterdly Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 After 10 years, I'm still shocked at the way vehicles make little (or no) attempt to get out of the way of ambulances here . Do they never think 'one day it could be me needing immediate emergency help in an ambulance'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
