Horrible way to die, RIP.

Wonder how fast that car was going to burst into flames on impact.

Driving or being driven in South-East Asia is even scarier than here.

RIP

The vehicle was a big Toyota people carrier, like a HiAce. The front end is completely smashed in, but the driver was actually the only one to survive. The damage points to a massive impact from hitting the truck.

Road rage,speeding,inattentiveness,tailgating,drug taking,underage driving.

All these are prevalent in Thailand and contribute to the most dangerous roads in Asia.

Traffic crashes are fixable problems, caused by dangerous streets and unsafe drivers. They are not accidents. Let’s stop using the word "accident".

The age of driverless vehicles can't come soon enough. RIP

Not so quick

A self-driving shuttle in Vegas was involved in the 1st day of service.

RIP, to the 4 killed.

Driving in Thailand. Certainly unique. The desire to overtake every car in front of you, whenever and wherever, seems to be a national sport. Some of the stuff I have seen blows my mind tbh.

Rule Number 1 Please limit all road travel in Thailand to an absolute minimum.....

If you don't there is a very high chance you will die.

I have seen many times the style of driving and it's unique as they drive as if it's a race to the next life.

They have no regard to safety whatsoever....... such a shame. Fly as much as possible.
