Couple Injured in Collision with Truck in Nonthaburi
A 31-year-old couple sustained injuries after their sedan crashed into the rear of an 18-wheel truck on Tiwanon Road in Pak Kret.
On the night of October 2, 2026, a serious traffic accident occurred on the outbound lanes of Tiwanon Road near the Metropolitan Electricity Authority U-turn in Pak Kret, Nonthaburi. According to reports from Khaosod Online, a Nissan sedan collided with the rear of an 18-wheel Hino truck.
Emergency responders from the Poh Teck Tung Foundation arrived at the scene to find the sedan wedged into the back of the trailer. The two occupants, identified as a 31-year-old man named Itthipol and a woman named Kanruethai, were injured in the crash. The female passenger reportedly stated that she was asleep at the time of the impact and was unaware of the events leading up to the collision.
For residents and travelers in the area, this incident serves as a reminder of the risks associated with night driving on major arterial roads where heavy freight vehicles operate. While the immediate scene was cleared by local authorities, the investigation into the specific cause of the crash—including potential factors such as driver fatigue or visibility issues—remains ongoing by the Pak Kret Police Station. Motorists are advised to exercise caution when driving near large trucks, particularly during late-night hours when reaction times may be compromised.
