อุบัติเหตุรถตู้เสยท้ายรถบรรทุกน้ำ Van collided with watering truck in the rightlane

Travel to nearby cities by van is common in Thailand. On January 27, 2014 The accident occured by van using right lane in high speed collided with front slow speed heavy weight watering truck working on traffic island. The truck had slightly damaged in the rear. Van driver lost his leg immediately and had open multiple fractures of another legs and died later at hospital.  Five passengers had been minor injured. All passenger seats have no seatbelts.

Van should drive carefully in slower speed  in the middle lane. Watering truck on duty should clearly observed in remote the assisted blinking light. 

Sudden reveal slow vehicle in front of you while you drive in 2 lane road with opposite coming vehicle!!!

(Picture is scene imitation.)

This accident occurred about 25 years ago while my dad drove right hand drive "Holden" car in rural area 2 lane local road. He followed one car A with speed while opposite lane had coming truck C. Suddenly, front car A accelerated to overtake something before passing opposite lane truck C. This is the sign of disaster. The very slow local truck B called "E-Tan" appeared not too far while opposite lane truck C was passing. The road shoulder on the left was not wide enough to dodge because there was steep slope beyond. Although my dad suddenly braked the car, but his car collided with the front truck. Two of the passengers in the truck were injured, first one had head injury which need to be craniotomy to remove blood in his skull, another one had fractured clavicle that need clavicle splint and need no surgery. My dad didn't injured anymore.

He told me about that accident once, but I've remembered that scene until now. Hope you recognise this sign and be slow.!!!
