That's a nasty bit of road past Ao Leuk, had a lot of widening construction work going on last time I passed by. If you  look at the full set of photo in Phuket News then you have to wonder if the pick-up was ghosting the wrong way ....

Was a she according to the report. Sole occupant of the pick-up. To be honest while the back was destroyed, the cab on the driver's side looked mostly untouched.

To me it looks like the pick up was slammed in the rear and dragged into the side of the road

Look in front of the pick ups left front tyre, it looks like a drag mark on the road

Mind you with a bus driver who no doubt will lie to save his arse, we may never know what happened

It was 2,30 pm

Last time I checked you did not require headlights to drive in the day

 

 

 

 

 

it

Depends on your definition of 'Ghosting'

 

Someone coming head on towards me on wrong side of the road is ghosting in my book pal, time of day or headlights don't come into it, as the result shows in this instance. But hey I welcome your input and opinion...

 

and actually just seeing your next reply I agree with you on second veiw it does look like she was rear ended and reverse spun

Point take, but then the pick up would be hit in the front, not the rear end

Yep I agree with you after looking again, as said my first thought was Ghosting, but I was incorrect, your are quite right mate.
