Social Media Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) By Goongnang Suksawat Banglamung – An Australian man who was an engineer died after a suspected road rage incident with a group of motorbike racers in the Pattaya area. The Nongprue Police were notified of the accident last night (January 20th) at 11:30 P.M. on the Thung Klom – Tanman Road in Nongprue. Police, emergency responders, and The Pattaya News arrived at the scene to find Mr. Graeme Foster, 59, an Australian national, lying near a power pole. He was unconscious and many bones were broken. He was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was tragically pronounced dead. Nearby, rescue workers found his damaged motorbike. Mrs. Kittiyaphon Foster, 49, who is Mr. Foster’s wife, told Nongprue police that her husband was an engineer. Last night, Mr. and Mrs. Foster, along with their friends, were dining at a restaurant about one kilometer from the scene. At 11:15 P.M. they were heading back home. Her husband was riding his motorbike. His Australian friend was following him on a second motorbike. Mrs. Foster and her two daughters were driving in a car behind the two Australian men.

Popular Post Leaver Posted January 22, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2023 I'm wondering if this suspected road rage "incident" was actually just a challenge for a race, particularly as the farang had a "custom" bike, and he didn't stay on the track for very long. Maybe no road rage at all. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe no road rage at all. Very possible. That's why they need to find the kids on bikes and any other witnesses. Until then, it's all reasonable conjecture here. Apart from the trolls with their mindless comments on his widow. The guy was a husband and a father so I hope when they fall off their bar stools and break their necks, it's picked up on The Pattaya News and posted here so we can have a right good laugh at their sad souls. 6 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post swm59nj Posted January 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2023 The explanations make no sense. People were following him. But no one knows what actually happened. Even though others supposedly heard them arguing . And if he was being attacked. People following behind him didn’t realize it. And he had a few drinks but not drunk. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was only the Pom's that were always angry when driving on the roads in Thailand. Maybe he was a dual citizen, like elderly Aussie/Pom who had the road rage incident which involved the gold shop owner on Soi Kophai a few years ago. ???? OMG, I think they got the nationality wrong. I just read the news article and his motorbike was posted. Aussies don't ride these embarrassing scooters, he must have been a Pom.

True that.... the primary reason I avoid riding at night...... just too many drunks on the road. By sticking to riding only in the day time I reckon the accident risk is at least halved. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. I also avoid rainy days and the heat of the day (too uncomfortable). ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
