One of the pick-up drivers told police officers that the sedan was gliding across the traffic island and crashed into a first truck before ricocheting into his truck and then colliding with the motorcycle.

Police Lieutenant Colonel Virat Trakulthai, Deputy Inspector of Investigation at Ban Bueng Police, said that all drivers and witnesses would be called for further interrogation later as they were currently stunned and confused about what actually happened in the incident.

Meanwhile, investigators would review the surveillance cameras nearby to determine the exact causes before charging the guilty drivers for further legal proceedings.
