City hall officials inspected the crossroads of Soi Khao Noi central Pattaya and found that the road had collapsed.
The hole was about 2 meters wide and 1 meter deep and officials placed a metal plate over it to prevent further accidents.
Officials said heavy rains that hit the area for several days last week caused the sand and soil underneath so dissipate and they also found a broken water supply pipeline nearby and the leaking water had also eroded the soil underneath.
The massive hole was a real danger for motorists
