JeffersLos Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 How did he manage that on that long bend? Where is the concrete post? Is that the officer's lunch in the bag? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soi3eddie Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Another tragedy on Thailand's roads. CB150R so likely "boy racer" going too fast leading to lost control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dumbastheycome Posted December 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2020 From my experience riding a bike on a road like this is that it is as likely due to avoiding an oncoming vehicle passing another blind as it is any fault of the motorcyclist ! A Honda 150 CBR is no quicker than a Sonic if speed was a factor. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nausea Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Why do they even report this anymore - this guy died, that bus overturned, this lorry's brakes failed; it's not exactly news, like does the sun set and rise each morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have been many things, best let the Police carry out a full investigation of the scene with the road closed to assist the accident investigation team and then and only then can we know the circumstances behind this daily occurrence.????????????????

douglasspade Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Nothing new, some weeks ago a guy came home late on a single road leading into our village. Apparently he could not make the corner on his highly modified Honda Cub and ran off the road. Next day an old man taking his buffalo to the water hole found a bike half emerged in the rice paddy water. The guy's body was found some meters away. Cops recon he was still alive but struggled to make it to the edge of the paddy too intoxicated, he drowned in knee deep water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
