Hours of comedy at Kampong Speu yesterday:

Cambodia News (Kampong Speu): On September 14, 2020, at 02:10 pm, a 25-year-old man, Chek En, drove a FUSO truck plate no. Takeo 3A-0504, in the direction from south to north, and tried to enter Kong Bophaream pagoda called Wat Oukorki through the gate.
Despite the driver's best efforts, the overloaded truck was too big to fit through the gate. And once he got half-way through the gate, he couldn't get back out. The gate seems to be taking a hit.

The police checked the accident and eventually took the truck to keep at the police station to sort the problem out by the legal procedure.

Not like there is a road that goes right around next to it

The driver obviously saw it as a challenge that he would get his truck through the archway, no matter what

I'm just amazed he didn't knock the whole archway over, doesn't look like it would take much of a hit, as its not attached to anything, just free-standing
