Power pole pins car to Phuket hillside

PHUKET: A young Phuket driver, caught off-guard by the slippery roads brought on by pre-dawn deluges this morning, lost control of the Nissan NV he was attempting to drive between Chalong and Kata.

The vehicle slid up an embankment, coming to rest wedged between the terrain and a power pole, pinning the driver’s door shut.

The driver suffered no injuries in the accident and managed to get out of the wreck without assistance.
