snoop1130 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Mother and daughter die in car after "not wanting to impose" on relatives Nakorn Sri Thammarat Muang district police were called after a 34 year old Koh Samui woman and her 14 year old daughter were found dead in a car in a coconut orchard. They appeared to have suffocated after sleeping in their red MG car. It is thought gases entered the passenger compartment of the car killing the pair. Police were told that Areeya Soparak was taking her daughter Alilada Sae-hoi to visit relatives on the mainland. It is believed that they arrived after midnight and felt "greng jai" about waking up their relatives in the middle of the night. So they decided not to impose on their folks and sleep in the car until morning. By that time they were dead. Medics and forensics staff found no signs of foul play. The mother and daughter had been dead for three hours already by 7.30am when rescue services arrived in the orchard in Pak Phoon sub-district, Muang district. It appeared they had slept with the engine running, the windows closed and the air-con on. When the engine went off it is thought that gases entered the passenger compartment suffocating the occupants, reported Daily News. The bodies have been sent for autopsy.

Strange So their saying it ran out of petrol If gasses were to enter wouldn't you think it would be under pressure from engine ? Are these gases heavier then air ? If breeze or no breeze wouldn't they disperse as to not be in the quantity needed for such a tragedy ? RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEVUP Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Also how would anyone know that they didn't want to disturb their relatives at that time of night after being found in the morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisY1 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Very plausible that carbon monoxide caused their deaths.....the AC could have been on fresh air mode, therefore drawing exhaust gasses into the cabin....on recycle mode, with the cabin not pressurised, gas could also ingress.

trainman34014 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Where i come from people would normally phone ahead to let relatives know what time they are arriving and arrangements made that suit both parties. However; quite often here people just seem to turn up without warning, a practice that irks me personally as it can be inconvenient. RIP those lost.

Can understand, every now & then I get a surprise. Then start to cringe as they may be after something I also can't understand why they didn't make arrangements or just rock up as half of them don't worry (there always drifting some where ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borzandy Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 It's normal the MG cars reject gases inside the passenger compartment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximillian Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Many inexpensive hotels in Nakhon Si Thammarat. Why sleep in a car in an orchard ? Inconvenient and risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ostyan Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 RIP How could a thought come up to a mother with her daughter to sleep in a coconut orchard? Even if she could not see any hotel, even if her mobile had a flat battery..... Very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems that it was particularly convenient for them. Why would it be risky on their own land? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even if it wasn't theirs why is a coconut orchard such a bad place to sleep for a few hours, it wasn't the location that killed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvavin Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 MG has become a shitty car brand ever since it was sold! Be safe. Just stay away from it at all cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car can distinguish between car gases and the atmosphere gases?? Not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
