A misjudging truck driver who had misinterpreted a minor collision with a motorbike as a grave accident attempted to flee from the scene in Phnom Penh on Tuesday, only to get into a separate accident – a real one this time.

The frantic man had gotten into a tizzy and lost control of the steering wheel in his attempted escape, crashing right into the fence of a nightclub and destroying its billboard.

The wrecker managed to escape and local police are on the lookout for him.
