There is an extra urgency to retrieve the car amid fears that it could be swept away by the current. The Consulate General’s Facebook page published a photo gallery showing Tanee’s visit to the highway, including photos showing damaged highway barriers. Authorities are still treating the two students as missing persons given that they have not been able to retrieve the car. The car crash was found by a helicopter search late last month but a triggered airbag has prevented authorities from seeing inside the car. The rescue team plans to fly a drone closer to the car but personnel are still unsure what it will see.
