Picture from responders.

 

In a miraculous escape, a car crash occurred after a motorcycle abruptly cut in front of a Honda Civic, causing the car driver to veer off course and slam into a palm tree and a large road sign. The incident took place at around 02:30 on September 22, near the Khao Talo traffic light junction in Nong Prue, Bang Lamung District, Chonburi.

 

The Pattaya Sawang Boriboon Rescue Centre responded to the emergency after receiving reports of a white Honda Civic ,license plate Bangkok, that had lost control, overturned, and collided with the median, hitting both a road sign and a large palm tree. The vehicle was heavily damaged, but the driver, Mr. Chayapat Nutchongkham, 36, miraculously survived with only minor injuries. Rescue workers provided first aid before transporting him to the hospital for further evaluation.

 

 


Eyewitnesses reported seeing the Honda Civic and a pickup truck driving at high speeds when a motorcycle suddenly crossed in front of the Civic, causing it to lose control and overturn onto the median. Fortunately, the car crashed into the signpost and tree, preventing it from crossing into the opposite lane, where other vehicles were waiting at the traffic light.

 

Authorities are continuing their investigation into the accident.

Speed kills yet the offence is ignored by Thai police all over the country.

I've already decided if a dog is causing me to crash I won't be swerving and crashing I'll be taking the dog out, discuss

100% agrre on that in a car.  More dangerous on a motorbike, so I bought a bigger bike now to take out small obstacles if necessary.  Stopping or swerving away is a possble death call.

Exactly, anything smaller than me and I  don't risk myself if dangerous.

yeah i reckon braking and locking the front wheel will cause a crash, better to try and plough straight through, maybe...

If enough time, slamming on the back brake to lock the back wheel and initiating a sideways skid on the left side is the best when a serious collision is unavoidable.  try to stay on the bike and not high side it.  That's what we taught on the Motorcycle Safety Foundation's beginner's course.

Happened on Sukhumvit road.

Two morons on a high speed race on Sukhumvit?

Motorbike rider desperately try to get over for a right turn at the light?

Yes but often people's instinct is grab the front brake, that's why ABS is good for beginners
