Cambodia News, Phnom Penh: At 1 am on August 29, 2022, along Preah Sothearos Street in Tonle Bassac, Chamkarmon, Phnom Penh, a foreign man driving a fast car carelessly, swerved and hit a pile of gravel causing the car to overturn on to the roof, but fortunately nobody was injured.

Sources at the scene said that prior to the incident, a foreign man (nationality not mentioned), was seen driving a blue Toyota Prius with license plate Phnom Penh 2BD-0600, driving along Preah Sothearos Road in a north-south direction. At the scene of the accident, the vehicle hit the pile of gravel at high speed, causing it to turn upside down.

After the incident, local authorities and traffic experts came down to lift the car and store it at the Chamkar Mon District Police Inspectorate, waiting for the owner to come in and deal with it later.

I hate the way every minor or larger construction piles gravel and sand all over the public road. A lot of the time I think they do it because it gives the workers more space to maneuver without putting up road cones or any proper barrier or warning. Twats.

The 'foreigner' is lucky the Prius has got a dented roof by design already. This one will look like new in minutes.

Taking bets about nationality of the driver. No matter the gravel pile.
