This is an interesting analysis. Did the coup really happen at 4am?
If so, then there's almost no way this video could be legit.

This stated communication blackouts lasted from 3 to 1115 am, with one journalist reporting a loss of service at 4am: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-55893736.
The coup didn't happen instantaneously at a given time, so it seems reasonable to say the video was recorded during the coup. At the same time, it's not really clear what specific activities the vehicles were on route to.
The building in the background of the video appears to be a shrine located just past the road leading to the Presidential Palace. You can see the vehicles turn left just before the shrine, so they were probably up to no good...
The sun shines from the back towards the right so is more in the east. I'd put it somewhere around 10 to 12 AM local time (UTC+6.5).
