“At this point, we assume that the fire was caused by a short circuit in the vehicle. However, we will investigate further,” Capt Kamalart Niyomket of the Phuket City Police told the Phuket Gazette.
A huge tailback snaked off the bypass road on to the south-bound lane of Thepkrassatri Road as firefighters battled the fire.
