We’ve all had GPS mishaps, either we followed and it leads us astray or we misunderstood and messed up a flip. If you haven’t, you’ve most likely never pushed in Bangkok. But one durian supply truck driver is discovering herself at the centre of ridicule after blaming her GPS for her truck getting wedged in a formidable wheelie beneath an overpass in Mueng Chon Buri yesterday.
Value had a bulging load of durians cresting over her tall delivery truck as she drove in Baan Suan yesterday, en path to ship the enormous fruits from farms in Rayong to Surat Thani in Southern Thailand. She claimed she was utilizing her GPS to navigate through town, however it gave her incorrect directions and he or she obtained misplaced. When she tried to comply with directions back onto course, she attempted to drive underneath the Road Number 7 Section 2 overpass, considering her truck could be underneath the clearance peak.
But she was wrong. Not solely did her outsized load get lodged under the bridge, much like a boat did just lately driving out of Phuket, however the sudden wedging lifted her 2 front tires fully off the bottom, her truck wedged frozen in a wheelie.
The caught truck spent about an hour wedged there, as a reasonably long string of site visitors backed up and triggered significant delays. Finally, with the help of a driver of another fruit supply pickup truck, the automotive was finally towed to freedom from underneath the bridge.
Her truck was wedged for about an hour, however the story had just begun for this poor driver. Perhaps due to the comical visual of the truck’s wheels within the air or her insistence that this accident was the fault of an erroneous GPS, but the story has now gone viral on Chon Buri social media sites, with people commenting on the photos and the GPS excuse, and even making memes of the event.
