Highway horror: Young man dies in motorcycle plunge from Thai overpass

[snoop1130]

 

A tragic motorcycle accident occurred early this morning, resulting in the death of a 21 year old man after his motorcycle careened off a five-story high overpass. The incident took place at the Thanya-Saraburi overpass, crossing Phaholyothin Road, in front of the Spell Town shopping complex in Thanyaburi district, Pathum Thani province.

 

Lieutenant Colonel Kriangkrai Saenyod, the investigative inspector from the Chulalongkorn Gate Police Station, was notified of the fatality at 5.30am and promptly arrived at the scene alongside volunteers from the Poh Teck Tueng Foundation. Upon their arrival, they discovered the lifeless body of Boonyarit (surname withheld) lying on the road surface below the overpass, which is as high as a five-story building.

 

Atop the overpass, investigators found a Honda Lead 125 motorcycle with the registration plate 7กด9614 from Bangkok and a single white sneaker, hinting at the suddenness of the accident. Initial inspections suggest that there were no witnesses to the incident. It is believed that Boonyarit lost control of his motorcycle while navigating the curve of the overpass, leading to his fatal plunge, reported KhaoSod.

 

The Poh Teck Tung Foundation took charge of Boonyarit’s body, transferring it to the Thammasat University Hospital, Chalermprakiat Building. Meanwhile, police contacted his relatives to claim his body for religious rites and initiated a review of the surveillance footage from the area to investigate the true cause of the accident and take further action.

 

In related news, a tragic collision in Samut Songkhram province claimed the life of a young motorcyclist after a pickup truck made a sudden turn in front of him, leading to a forceful impact. The incident occurred at 9.45am on March 27.

 

Police Lieutenant Chanathip Ongkleub, the deputy inspector at the Mueang Samut Songkhram Police Station, received a report of a vehicular collision involving a motorcycle and rushed to the scene with the Swang Benjathat Foundation’s rescue team.

The motorcycle careened off of nothing! Police found it still on the overpass, it was only the rider that left the roadway.

 

Another wonderful rubbish headline!
