A pickup truck skidded along the road when its front wheel bounced off.

CCTV footage shows the vehicle's tire detaching and being thrown off to the side before the driver seemed to have hit the brakes in Ratchaburi province, Thailand.

It lost control and crashed on the roadside but no one was seriously hurt.

Despite being one of the wealthiest countries in Asia, Thailand suffers from chronic underinvestment in its roads and pavements, contributing to its poor road safety levels. Only a handful of African countries are worse.

Thailand has one of the world's worst road safety records. Ministers have set the goal of reducing fatalities from 32.7 deaths per 100,000 people to 12 per 100,000 people by the year 2027.

However, a lack of road safety education in schools along with notoriously easy driving tests, police failures to enforce road laws, and chronic under-investment in infrastructure, all appear to hamper the efforts.
