Suspected Drunk Woman Driver Leaves her Car on the Road Divider

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Been a while since we had a story that involved them so just goes to show that while you may not hear that much about them lately they are there......waiting.....
Now if they could put them everywhere in Snookyville that would possibly be a bonus.
If they could put them around a few airports in China, that might be even better....

Can we please have a return of the regular Sunday roundup of the weekend's Road Dividers V. Motoring Public matches?
Well, at least the international teams are doing their bit.

SternAAlbifrons makes a good point as does Doc67 and both for different reasons.
Stern is right and perhaps we should have a round up of the scores although they, the road dividers, have had some tough competition lately between people running into noodle carts, shop fronts or into other vehicles.
While Doc makes a very valid point as to the vehicles should be confiscated at the scene but let's go further and wreck what's left of them. Or perhaps sell the parts that may still be usable. A lot of accidents seem to be front end so that leaves a fair amount of metal (and plastic) which could be salvaged. Any money raised can pay for various bills associated with the accident. The driver wants the car back then they must prove that fill restitution has been made to all parties (medical bills, damages, loss of income etc) before it leaves the compound. Or is that too open to kickbacks to the cops?
Just remember that Road Dividers are always there. Watching. Waiting.
