received reports of a serious crash near the Chukdon curve in Mueang District, Kanchanaburi.

Thais should be banned from roads with curves. 

Forgot to pay the cops.

Locals have speculated that the late monk’s spirit might wish to remain in the space, adding a layer of mystique to the incident.

IMO More like other monks or the abbot set fire to it to get rid of the spirits. Especially if he died in there.

According to Seksan, he had been waiting at the red light to turn toward Khlong Ha when his van was struck from behind, causing his vehicle to lose control, spin forward, and crash into other vehicles and a barrier. He suffered injuries to his leg and mouth from the impact.

I wonder if he was sitting at the lights in gear foot on clutch, and no handbrake applied, a very bad driving habit that a lot of people have, even with an Auto, I always select neutral and apply the handbrake, it's how I was taught, and was explained to me exactly why you should do that "incase someone rear ends you" But of course that was in the UK.

They obviously don't get fined enough, or they are paying with a brown envelope.

An OIL tanker, what kind of oil was it I wonder ?

The gentleman was a friend of mine. An autopsy is being conducted and results will show whether a medical incident occurred.  He was NOT drunk as he was on his way to visit friends. He ALWAYS wears a helmet whilst riding his motorbike.

Sorry for your loss, I did not suggest he was drunk, I only suggested he was not wearing his helmet at the time, because of his "head injuries "

causing it to veer off the road. The area, currently under road construction, features a drop-off alongside the roadway, where his body and motorcycle were discovered.

No doubt the road construction was badly signed if at all, and he was not wearing a helmet.

Yeh right, all the cops are a law unto themselves, they think serve and protect is just for their selves.

The owner of my local test centre also had an insurance business so I was able to complete all the paperwork with him

I think they all sell insurance, it's very handy to renew same time as tax. I don't understand why a member here is confused about the mandatory/compulsory insurance that you must pay to get your Road Tax..................

Easy to find, its the 'paper' that is more difficult, but the Chinese are a canny lot.

Sad that the people died but good that some vehicles have insurance , just need better training of the drivers

All Vehicles have 3rd party insurance it is compulsory, when/if you pay the road tax, private insurance is available if you want more cover.

While the topic has garnered interest within the government’s coalition partners, Mr Julapun stressed that there is "no rush" to move forward.

There will never be a 'Rush' to move forward in Thailand, not with this Government.
