You don’t need a big bike to do 30kmh into a concrete pole or any other solid immovable object for that matter, to die on impact. I don’t see the relevance of big bikes being more problematic than 125cc scooters. They are all deadly in the wrong hands if they can do any more than 30km/h. Fortunately these clowns are only on bikes, can you imagine the drama of their similar behaviour behind the wheel of a 1+tonne car? It’s unthinkable!

Very true.

Here in the village there are some foolish road terrorists in pimped super noisy 125 ccm's.

Every evening they are racing up and down the small village road that "dead ends" at a T-junction. Elderly, children, dogs on the road.

Completely brainless, possibly on speed pills and no police, no vigilantes to beat them up.

And of course a power pole would help to end this.

Perhaps a bad battery?

 

 

Or maybe he is simply a person who takes responsibility.

Did the ice truck have any tail lights? I often see them running with only head lights as that all they really need to see the road at night. Tail lights are not a necessity to in Thailand.

Looks like he was undertaking instead of over taking. That's a very apt name for the manoeuvre - undertaking. 

 

Doubt it. Look at the above image. Hit rear off side.

Ice truck was parked at the kerb making deliveries, rider passes a car that was in the centre lane on the left (under taking), saw the ice truck too late and clipped it trying to avoid it. My thoughts anyway.

Another idiot driving too fast for the road conditions.

 

another idiot commenting and disrespecting a dead person.

So tell us mister, how do you know the fact that rider was riding fast?

lets say he was riding fast, sure he didnt intentionally crashed, it was an accident.

or is it just1prejudicedvoice?

How is this news. I see it pretty much every day. A bike in the road, blood on the street. And from what i see they deserve what they get.
