Chinese driver crashes into Chon Buri roadwork barriers
A Chinese driver and two others were injured after a luxury car crashed into barriers at a road repair site and overturned on Highway 331 in Chon Buri late yesterday, May 7.
Rescue workers from Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Foundation received reports of the crash at 11.40pm on the inbound side of Highway 331 toward Rayong.
At the scene, emergency responders found a black Mercedes-Benz overturned in the middle of the road.
The Chinese driver , 29 year old Hu Jonfeng, was injured inside the vehicle along with a female Chinese passenger, who suffered serious injuries.
A third injured person was identified as 45 year old road worker La-iad, who was installing warning lights and traffic equipment at the road repair site when the crash occurred.
Rescue workers used hydraulic cutting equipment to remove the victims before taking them to a nearby hospital.
According to police, the car was travelling at speed before crashing into plastic barriers at the roadworks area. The impact reportedly sent the barriers into the worker, causing serious injuries, before the vehicle overturned.
