newnative Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 So, not licensed or trained to drive a motorcycle with the type of drivers license he had. Likely no experience in driving a motorcycle. Two more senseless deaths by not requiring valid motorcycle licenses in order to drive a motorcycle in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Quote Witnesses told police that the car was turning right into a hotel before the motorbike, which was ridden by the foreign man, crashed into the sedan. THE typical end for many motorbike riders. Overlooked by a careless car driver. On the other hand the motorbike rider probably with a firm grip on the throttle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
