A cabbie was killed and three others injured yesterday in a chain reaction of accidents at Bangkok's Pasi Charoen area.
Around 6am, a taxi brushed a motorcycle and injured the bike rider, when a pickup speeding towards them swung to the left lane to avoid the scene. However, as the road surface was covered with soil and rocks, which had spilled from a truck passing through the previous night, the pickup overturned. A taxi that was closely tailing the pickup tried to avoid the scene but crashed into a power pole, instantly killing the cabbie, Boonsenf Singsi, 39, while his passenger was wounded.

Not bizarre at all, this is what happens with high speeds, high reaction times (due to fatigue), no seat-belts employed and lack of distance to the car infront.
