webfact Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Amulet dealer names lucky charm after miracle escape! Picture: 77kaoded An amulet dealer came within seconds of death after parking his ancient and trusty Mitsubishi by the side of the road in Ratchaburi yesterday. Jiranwat, 53, said he was on an amulet errand and had parked his car 10 seconds earlier and got out. Then a truck carrying pork completely flattened it and shunted it into the back of another ten wheeler. Jiranwat and the drivers of the trucks were all standing about uninjured when police, fire and rescue services arrived. Traffic was terrible on Petchkasem Road heading towards Ratchaburi because the Mitsubishi's tank was spewing out LPG and had to be doused and dealt with. Picture: 77kaoded Jiranwat told 77kaoded: "It's a real shame about the car - it's been in the family for 40 years. "It's clear I survived due to the Phra Somdet Wat Rakhang amulet that I wear around my neck for safety purposes". The media called it a miracle escape by amulet.

'safety purposes' Nothing to do with the fact he got out of car before the pork truck hit it. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMartinHandyman Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Doesn’t look like approved parking to me. Looks like he was in emergency stopping only lane so the truck should collect from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
