A man from Thailand died after his motorcycle crashed into a bridge railing in Chonburi.

 

The fatal accident happened at about 4:30 AM on Monday, April 29, 2024. The Samet Police were alerted and they sent officers and emergency rescue teams to the bridge in the Samet part of the Mueang district, in Chonburi region.

 

The dead man, only identified as Mr. Kriangkrai, was found lying on the road with severe head and arm wounds. He was quickly declared dead at the location by emergency medical staff. His red and black Honda CBR motorbike was found nearby, along with a shattered motorcycle helmet.

 

Mr. Koravin, a friend who was riding on a separate bike near Mr. Kriangkrai when the accident happened, said they had been out sightseeing around 4 AM. He said that the accident occurred when Mr. Kriangkrai was riding home and lost control of his bike on a bend.

 

The police are looking into what caused the accident and are encouraging bikers to exercise caution and not exceed the speed limit.

no more sightseeing. 

Yes it looks like a bit of speed was involved.  The way the forks are separated from the rest of the bike... 

 

Ouch that gotta hurt. 

Sightseeing at 4:00 am? I'm guessing it was "I'll race you to the next sight see who gets there first." 

 

Now I am not a motorbick expert, but that bike does not appear to be red and black. It looks white to me.

Never felt a thing

Big bikes, little bikes, they all are death traps in Thailand no matter how good a rider you are. The law of averages, which are very high in Thailand, will catch up to you some day, its only a matter of time.

The quality of the articles is going down fast like a bike crash. Including a picture which has nothing to do with the incident apart from also being a crashed bike is just pathetic. I also highly doubt that the picture came from Google and is licensed by them. Google just indexed it and returned it in its search.

Yep, I've all but given up on the news articles at AN. No links to sources and using file photos like this. Big thumbs down!!

The image is stolen from a report of an accident in Phuket in 2017 (reported by The Nation).

I didn't want to say it but there is a taste of copyright infringement in the air. In an organized and commercial way. Not just the images but the content of the articles which is clearly taken from other news sources without attribution.

Almost every photo in every article.

If you don't have an actual friggin' photo, don't post any photo at all!

rubbish assessment - forks are in 2 main sections and designed to be soft for shock absorption

Next time, maybe an AI-generated image, based upon the text of the news story, should be included?

 

Yes!

No links to sources...? 

 

Maybe there ARE no sources. 

 

And, if this never happened, would it really make any difference, anyway?

Hope he enjoyed his last view.

I am just guessing, but even Stevie Wonder could have declared him dead, what with a severed head and all.

It says severe head (wounds) not 'severed'.

Might as well show from Google the body of another person as well, who also died on the road, ideally in this same decade.

Should be easy to find an archived picture of a dead person on a street. Just to make the news more complete, and help us understand what exactly happened.

Next time maybe...

At around  4.00am most people are sleeping or so blind drunk they can't see much anyway and with a possible touch of speeding a bad mix.RIP

Read the hole article: "File photo for reference only. Courtesy of Google".

 

A random googled photo and no article source link?

 

Ah, found it reported in Pattaya News where OP is almost identical wording. At least they showed a red & black Honda CBR as photo 😆  The bike pic shows very little damage, just some heavy scrapes down right hand side (unlike the pic of a totally destroyed bike in OP)
