Some expats could also be confused once they see a Thai person again a car right into a parking area. Pulling in forward is much faster, but Thais prefer to spend an extra jiffy navigating their automotive backwards into parking spaces to save tons of a few seconds on a fast escape after they leave. But backing right into a parking area comes with its risks, as a truck driver in Bangkok found yesterday.

In record time arrived on the scene and took the injured man to Theptarin Hospital. The extent of his injuries is yet to be confirmed.
This is not the primary time an incident of this nature has occurred in Thailand in current times. Last 12 months, CCTV footage captured a man intentionally driving his automobile off the third story of a parking lot of a shopping mall in Nonthaburi.
The footage showed the car crashing towards the wall without breaking it then dashing toward the wall again and crashing through it to land on the road below. The automotive landed the other means up, however the driver only had minor neck injuries, and will still stroll and discuss.
And the 12 months earlier than, in a weird accident in Nakhon Ratchasima that amazingly resulted in solely two accidents and no deaths, a pickup truck smashed through a wall and plummeted six floors. The truck crash took place in Muang district on the eighth floor of a hospital parking constructing..
