An incident occurred on October 12, when a university student riding a motorcycle collided with a parked pickup truck, lost control, and was tragically crushed by a passing truck. The incident happened on Bang Na-Trat Road in Chonburi, leaving the young student dead at the scene.

 

 


At approximately 11:20 Pol. Lt. Col. Chaikrit Chotipiriyapokin, an investigator from the Mueang Chonburi Police Station, received a report of a fatal accident involving a motorcycle and a trailer truck. The accident occurred on the inbound lane towards Bangkok at kilometre marker 53+13 in Klong Tamru sub-district, Mueang Chonburi district. Rescue teams from the Tri Khunatham Foundation were dispatched to the scene.

 

Upon arrival, authorities found a white Hino trailer truck parked by the side of the road. Nearby, a damaged white Yamaha Fino motorcycle lay on the ground. Tragically, the body of Mr. Nantachit (last name withheld), a bachelor’s degree student at a well-known university, was discovered under the truck’s rear left wheel. He was wearing his student uniform at the time of the accident.

 

According to Mr. Anupol (last name withheld), 28, the truck driver, he was traveling from Laem Chabang Port to Samut Prakan province. As he approached the accident site, the motorcyclist veered into his path after brushing against a parked pickup truck. Despite his efforts to brake, Mr. Anupol could not avoid the collision, as the motorcycle had already fallen under his vehicle.

 

Authorities will review additional CCTV footage from the scene to investigate the incident thoroughly and proceed with legal action.

 

Footage from the truck’s camera captured the moment the student was speeding on the left side of the truck before losing control and hitting the parked pickup. The collision caused the motorcycle to fall, resulting in the student being run over by the trailer truck, leading to his immediate death.
