Cheerawat told the police that while he was driving the truck on his way to Bangkok a cement lorry came in from the right hand lane, he sounded his horn and realized the the lorry was going to hit him so he accelerated however his truck overturned and burst into flames.
The officers inspected the scene but of course the cement lorry was nowhere to be seen.
