A crash occurred when a high-speed, unregistered big bike crashed into the rear of a Toyota Fortuner waiting at a U-turn in Ban Khai District, Rayong, resulting in one fatality and four injuries.

 

The incident took place on the night of November 25, near the U-turn at the three-way Scout Camp intersection in Ban Khai, Rayong. Local police and rescue volunteers from Sawang Porakun Foundation responded to the scene upon receiving reports of the collision.

 

Upon arrival, authorities encountered a large crowd of onlookers, causing traffic to back up for over two kilometres. At the scene, a black big bike was found severely damaged, with oil spilling across the road. The rear of the white Toyota Fortuner was completely crushed.

 

One fatality was reported at the scene, a Burmese man named Ta, who was riding the big bike with another individual, Mi, who sustained injuries. It remains unclear who was driving, as both were ejected from the motorcycle upon impact. The big bike had no license plate.

 

Preliminary investigations revealed that the Fortuner and other vehicles were waiting at the U-turn when the speeding big bike clipped a male student’s motorcycle, injuring him, before crashing full force into the Fortuner. The impact caused the rear of the Fortuner to veer sideways. Inside the vehicle, a Chinese woman sitting in the backseat suffered serious injuries.

 

Residents noted that accidents frequently occur at this U-turn, with some resulting in fatalities. Poor lighting and reckless speeding are believed to be contributing factors.

 

Police from Ban Khai Station collected evidence to pursue legal action and address the recurring dangers at this location.

2 major accidents at U turns on the one page of this mornings news. WTF are the Thai road designers thinking about with this crazy idea. They have just completed road works on the main street in our Amphur putting in barriers and 3 new U turns, one of em is so tight my DMax is on full lock. Trucks delivering to our BigC have to back up and make 2 attempts to get around = Idiots!!
