The driver of the Honda Jazz, 27-year-old Ms. Netnapha (family name withheld by police), appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, noted the police. She claimed that she had been driving on the right side of Sukhumvit Road and did not see the motorcycle until it was too late. She crashed into it, causing the rider to fall and suffer injuries. After the accident, she was very distressed but managed to call for emergency services once she calmed down

No hint that he was in wrong direction.
Near the Chaiyaphruek intersection sounds like he had to go right and slow down to (U) turn?

Bloody dangerous on this race track. When in Pattaya I avoid it with the scooter as good as possible.

The picture makes it look that way. But we seem to get left to right inversion in many a picture.

Anyone riding a motorbike at 1 am is taking a big risk. I bet 50% of the drivers are pi**ed.
