A tragic road accident involving a saloon car and a motorbike sparked a blaze that engulfed both vehicles. The collision occurred on Chomthirawet Road, Chon Daen-Dong Khoi route, between kilometres 33-34 in Ban Kutti Phra, Tha Kham subdistrict, Chon Daen district, Phetchabun province. The motorbike rider, a 19 year old woman, tragically lost her life.

 

The incident took place yesterday around 6.30pm. The saloon car, a bronze MG with the license plate number 7267 of Phetchabun, crashed into an electricity control box by the roadside, igniting a fire at the front of the car. Firefighters quickly extinguished the flames. About 100 meters away, the motorbike was found ablaze.

 

After extinguishing the flames, officers found the motorbike to be a Honda, its colour and license plate number unidentifiable due to the fire damage. Near the wreckage, the lifeless body of a young woman was discovered. Wearing long white trousers and a long-sleeved grey top, her face was so severely injured it was unrecognizable. She was later identified as A (pseudonym), reported Sanook.

Sadly, most people these days do not think about the old mantra -

Mirror, signal, manoeuvre.

RIP young lady.

Sounds like perfectly normal behaviour by the deceased. Similar thing happened a couple of hundred metres from my house. Two women of a motorcycle, went to turn right without looking, hit by an SUV which was overtaking. Driver of the bike dead and her passenger lost her legs. All for absolutely no reason. You really can't help these people. They haven't got a clue.

If the post is correct then the motorcycle rider made her fatal mistake.

The police clearly didn't search well enough or they would have been found.

Yet another AN contributor who thinks that death and injury are things to make jokes about. Here's news for you - you aren't funny. Pathetic, yes. I'm glad not to know you.

Do you have family? Would you joke about it if one of them, or you, lost their legs? Or is it only funny if it happens to someone else? What a pathetic human being you are.
