PHUKET: -- The driver of a Chang beer delivery truck survived a heavy collision after he lost control of his vehicle and slammed into a roadside power pole in Thalang early this morning (July 5).

 

Lt Suporn Muangkhai of the Thalang Police was called to the scene of the accident, on Thepkrasattri Rd southbound near Tha Ruea shrine, at 2:30am.

 

Lt Suporn and Kusoldharm rescue workers arrived at the scene to find a Bangkok-registered white Toyota Hilux slammed against a power pole by the side of the road.

Why does this not surprise me...:cheesy:

going by all the other beer delivering pickups driving around overloaded ,can imagine loosing control when half the time the front wheels are not on the ground because of all the weight being over the back

“At this stage Mr Phadungkiet has been charged with reckless driving causing damage."
It's fortunate that the tragic loss of beer was only Chang. If it had been quality Ales or Belgian brews, they would need to charge him with crimes against humanity as well.
