A trip to the Royal Palace didn’t leave two friends awestruck, but rather saw them do the striking – with a car. Riding in the capital’s Tuol Tompoung I commune on Sunday on their way to see the King’s home, the men were speeding when they collided with the left side of an automobile, severely injuring its driver, who was sent to hospital.

Cops and relatives of the motorists arrived and the case was closed after a compensation deal was struck.
