Phnom Penh, Cambodia News; A truck that was parked too close for comfort to the train lines of the Phnom Penh Airport train, caused an accident when it was hit by a passing engine. The truck crashed into a car, and crunched over a motorbike. The truck driver who caused the problem escaped without injury, but the driver of the car and the motorcycle were badly injured and taken to hospital.

Nobody knows why the truck was parked so close to the rails. Police have impounded the three vehicles involved in the accident while they investigate.

The truck driver probably thought there was enough room for the train to go around his truck.
