Four men were lucky to walk away with only minor injuries in Phnom Penh’s Chamkarmon district yesterday, after overestimated their moto-racing abilities.

They decided to indulge in some late-night road-racing, chasing one-another around town.

But when exiting a flyover, the limits of their racing prowess became clear when one lost control and clattered into a friend, wiping out all racers.

The budding speedsters ended up in hospital, while their rides are in police custody.
