Woman driver lives after going through wall on 8th floor of condo car park

A 40 year old woman driving a Mazda 2 was taken unconscious to hospital after she drove off the eighth floor of a condominium car park in the Rama 3 area of Bangkok late last night.

The incident happened at the Rama 3 Residence building A at 11 pm last night.

The Mazda crushed four bikes on the ground but no one else was hurt. 

Rescuers at the scene noted that wearing a seat belt and the deployment of the steering wheel airbag seemed to have saved the woman’s life. 

Pictures showed a smashed wall on the eighth floor.

The driver was named as Runthip Thongjanrit, 40, who was taken to Charoen Krung Pracharat Hospital.

Police are not sure exactly what happened though it is believed that the driver was reversing at the time.
