A motorcyclist is recovering at Thalang Hospital after a crash with a pickup truck outside Tha Ruea Shrine, Phuket earlier today. The woman, 28 year old Soolfa Taemtophol from Kamala, sustained a facial cut and several abrasions on her body. Following initial reports, care providers and local law enforcement responded just before 11am, finding the motorcyclist injured on Thepkrasattri Road in Srisoonthorn, south of Heroines Monument.

 

According to those who witnessed the incident, Soolfa was riding her red Honda Wave motorcycle toward Koh Kaew when it collided with a bronze Mazda BT 50 pickup truck. Details surrounding the accident and the identity of the truck’s driver have yet to be ascertained by the investigative authorities.

 

Images from the scene show two foreigners attending to the injured woman on a stretcher, but their connection to the event remains unestablished, reported the Pkuket news.

This particular curve is not sharp as mentioned. It's just a normal road with 2 or 3 lanes. However it's very busy and the inside lane/shoulder vanishes in an instant.

If you are not familiar with it or paying very close attention it's a bad situation.
