"Initially, only the lower half of her body was found in the middle of the road.

Later, the upper half of the body was found in the Porsche's passenger's seat, which was left about 10km from the scene.

The upper half of the body had crashed through the windshield and landed there."

Tragedy with odd circumstances and outcome.

Not to flounder up this whole thing but I found the part of the article most interesting...

The victim legally entered and resided in Thailand, and is eligible for compensatory payment, as a Thai victim would be under the same conditions, police said.

Does this mean that an illegal alien in Thailand has less or no rights in the Thai legal system? Novel idea.

Passing a parked bus at 75 mph in an area where pedestrians cross the street? Hmmm...

Typically, the HOV calls for 2 people, not 1.5.
