webfact Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Man "racing on the highway" dies after Civic cut in two by tree Picture: Daily News Police believe that a man was having a race with another vehicle on a road notorious for speeding in Bangkok before he lost control, mounted the footpath and slammed into a tree. Por Teck Tung medics had to cut 41 year old Thaweesak Premphone from the driver's seat of his white Honda Civic after the crash around 11pm last night on the Prasertmanukit road outbound 100 meters from the Sukhontawat intersection. He had broken legs, arms and neck and was dead. His vehicle was virtually cut in two. A witness told the Khok Khram police that the Civic had been racing with a Toyota Vigo pick-up truck that left the scene of the accident. They said that the Civic had swerved for some reason at high speed with the driver losing control. Police are looking for the driver of the Vigo as investigations continue. But police strongly suspect that the victim was racing with the driver of the Vigo, reported Daily News. Thaivisa notes that the wide dual carriageway from Kaset to Nawamin is well known in the northern Bangkok area as a road where drivers do speed tests, especially at night, and sometimes race.

Bob12345 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Happy to read that this problem solved itself. Maybe keep the BiB away, plant some more trees, and communicate clearly there are no speed cameras there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are motorcyclists trying similar stunts on a main road in Chiang Mai around midnight. They'll never be caught - it's after sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shady86 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Cant see it that was a Civic FB or FD. A stock 1.8 Civic would not beat a diesel pickup for the first 100M drag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Okay with me. And, he was 41 and still acting like a hot-headed teenager. Not that his mental age necessarily reached double figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impulse Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Sure glad it wasn't anyone I know or love. Reveling in another human being's death is pretty despicable, even if they did die doing something stupid and dangerous. They left behind families who will be grieving horribly. And here we have people joking about how glad they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is too juvenile to know the danger he posed to himself and more importantly to others then the world is better off without him. He was an inconsiderate idiot who had no business being in charge of a potential killing machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately too many do, and innocent people die and innocent families are left to pick up the pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank God none of you were at those funerals, showing the kind of compassion being exhibited here. And I hope none of them show up at your loved one's funeral, even if they've wrapped themselves around a tree doing something stupid. And make no mistake. We, and most of our loved ones have done something stupid in our lives. But I guess it's just the strangers who deserve to die for it.

Not for the team who had to cut the bloody mess out of the car or the crew who had to take the remains to the hospital. They are the people who get my admiration. As for the idiot in the Honda Civic, som nam na. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
