An employee of Line Man was taken to hospital after he was hit at considerable speed by a motorcyclist riding on the footpath in the western Bangkok metropolitan area. 

 

Shocking CCTV footage showed the moment Thanachote Klomkliang, 49, was hit. He had just bought some "ratna" noodles from a shop and was about to get back on his own bike parked in the road.

When Bang Khun Thian police arrived he had already been taken to hospital. Waiting at the scene near the end of Ekachai Soi 55 was 19 year old Natthacha Jaengsawang, the rider of the Honda using the sidewalk. 

 

He is helping police Lt-Col Supachai Therasanthia with his inquiries. The police plan to interview both the victim and the rider together before progressing with the case. 

 

The owner of the "Nung Ratna Yort Phak" noodle shop Orakan Sae-bim, 43, said that motorcyclists using the sidewalk was a frequent problem.

 

A neighbor had called the authorities after the accident. 

 

Thai Rath said that comment on Thai social media was rife following the posting of the video.

Thai's don't seem to be aware of what's round them and don't look where they are going. I work at a secondary school in Thailand and it's most noticeable amongst students, they seem to be oblivious to proximity of their surroundings . This also reflects on the roads and the amount of traffic accidents in Thailand. 

They are all on remote control and the rest is karma....
