Driver dead as pick-up dragged 200 meters by Bangkok bound train
A driver in a pick-up was dragged 200 meters down the line by the Yala to Bangkok express after he cut in front of the train at a crossing.
Though Kittisak Haliphan, 33, was pulled alive from the wreckage he was pronounced dead later in hospital.
His Isuzu D-Max vehicle suffered extensive damage with a large part of the back of the vehicle coming to rest 100 meters away from the cab.
