legend49 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 “Eye witness reports indicate one of the cars crossed over into the opposite lane which is when they collided,” said Capt Chalermsak. Taking bets on which car that was? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London Lowf Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 The normally instantaneous Eakkapop Thongtub was a bit slow on the scene this time - even the recovery truck beat him to it! Mind you, a very minor ding by Patong Hill standards - and it's been so long since I've read a report like this that I thought they had built the tunnel!
