At the scene of the accident, a rescue team found a blue Suzuki truck carrying dirt turned sideways after hitting the guard rail. The truck driver’s leg was pinned under the dashboard, and it took the rescue unit 30 minutes to free him. He was taken to Nakornping hospital. Near the truck, there was a white Honda Amaze with minor front end damage. Police said that a silver/bronze van, with rear end and left side damage, that was left near the U-turn, was the cause of this accident.
Witnesses said the van was waiting for a U-turn at the no U-turn sign in front of Macro when the truck approached. Unable to stop, the truck driver hit the van then veered into the guard rail. The white Honda fortunately slowed down before hitting the truck. Locals said they avoid using that road because many motorists don’t obey the traffic signs in the area.
