Speeding driver escapes
fiery death in Sattahip
Patcharapol Panrak
A Bangkok man escaped a fiery death when a fellow motorist pulled him
out of his burning car following a crash in Sattahip.
Wuthichai Butthong, 35, was severely injured, but escaped being burned when
someone pulled him from his burning Nissan Cefiro. He was taken to Queen Sirikit
Naval Medical Center.
Firefighters took about 20 minutes to extinguish the vehicle fire on Sukhumvit
Road opposite the Khet Udomsak municipal office April 18. The Nissan had plunged
into a 2-meter-deep ditch and crashed into a large road sign.
Wuthichai admitted to police he’d been speeding and had lost control of the
vehicle.
