A sedan driver was killed after ramming his vehicle into a street barrier in Pattaya. His passenger, a 38-year-old woman, survived with non-life-threatening injuries.

 

The surviving victim, Ms. Kiatpan Chimthuam, was rescued from the car wreckage by Sawang Boriboon rescuers today, December 8th. Kiatpan sustained minor head injuries and bleeding, so the first responders administered first aid and took her to a hospital.

 

The wreckage was discovered on Motorway Route 7 in the Huai Yai subdistrict, Bang Lamung district at 5:30 AM. The sedan had rammed into a street barrier. Another victim, Mr. Badin Soianusorn, who was the driver, succumbed to his wounds inside the car. He was 41 years old, according to rescuers.

Drunk?

Keep driving faster and faster.  Go for it.  Darwin is happy.

Looks as if he did not see a road narrowing judging by the concrete debris. Must have been shifting to move one of those so far.

Chalk one more up for the stats.

The state of the car suggests very high speed.

There was no eyewitness to the accident, stated Pattaya police.

 

Err, what about the passenger who only suffered minor injury? I suppose asking her what happened never occurred to them.

Plus speed.. 

Looking at the car and reading a description of her injuries I would suggest that she had her seat belt on and he didn't.

An unlit concrete obstacle in the road..........????

Speed kills.
