Sri Racha –
A minivan driver blamed a wet road and not his driving following a collision with a pickup truck that injured two people and shut down traffic for over two hours this week.
Emergency responders were notified of the accident on Tuesday (March 1st) at a U-turn in front of a hospital in the Borwin sub-district.
The first response teams arrived at the scene to find an overturned minivan and an overturned pickup truck on the road. Traffic was blocked and tailed back where it remained for about two hours until tow trucks were able to remove the vehicles.
Both drivers, who were later identified as Mr. Bandit Songprasert, 44, and Mr. Yodrak Boonchai, 36, have sustained minor injuries and were taken to a local hospital as a precaution
The minivan driver stated to the press, “I was driving slowly. The road was wet, causing me to lose control of my minivan and crash into a pickup truck in the opposite lane. Luckily, I was wearing a seatbelt and not seriously injured. The accident was not my fault, it’s the fault of the wet road.”
Borwin police had not decided on any legal charges as of press time.
