webfact Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Driver has miracle escape from accident in Chiang Mai Picture: Sanook Sanook reported that a 25 year old Thai woman called Nutchakan had to be cut out of her Honda Civic after she crashed into a tree on the Chiang Mai to Phrao Road. She had multiple injuries including a broken left leg but was taken alive to Nakhon Ping Hospital. The media called it a miracle escape. Witnesses saw the car weaving across the road on a long straight stretch before the accident. She was heading towards Mae Jo. They reported seeing a passenger but despite an extensive search of the crash site in the Sansai area no other person could be found. Picture: Sanook Police believe the driver either had a seizure or fell asleep behind the wheel. Rescue services warned about this stretch of road that is straight for 10kms and has frequent accidents. Sanook said that the driver, from San Kamphaeng was "benjaphaet". This refers to the Thai belief that when people are 25 something life changing is likely to happen.

paulb74 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Perfectly straight smooth wide roads going from town to town. Brilliant sunshine. Can be tough sometimes you just write off your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a977 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Bet the Police didn't check her phone as I rarely see a Thai lady without her phone to her ear or using it in one form or another, they just cannot help themselves 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 1 hour ago, IvorBiggun2 said: Unbelievable. I live on a long straight road, and in the seven years I've been here there have been something like 20 accidents within 500 metres. They have involved overturned lorries, death, amputations, coma, even a car flying through the top of a tree. So yes, unbelievable in most places, but not in Thailand where even a long straight road presents a serious challenge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trees are very close and if you lose control, for whatever reason, you have no chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soi3eddie Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) Just goes to show that trees are dangerous and involved in far too many accidents. Removal of trees should be a top priority to ensure the safety of sleepy drivers Edited December 1, 2020 by soi3eddie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocketDog Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Look, every day that anybody drives in the Kingdom and doesn't suffer a mishap is a miracle. This is the reality. Every time we leave the car or bike intact we should kiss the ground and thank the gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
