Georgealbert Posted November 27, 2024 Posted November 27, 2024 An incident occurred on November 26, when an 18-year-old man riding, standing up, on the back of a small six-wheel truck struck his head on the bottom edge of a underpass bridge and died. The driver, his uncle, claimed he was unaware his nephew was standing in the truck bed as they returned home from a local market. Police Captain Kritsatha Prathumkaew, an investigator from the Sam Khok Police Station, received the report of the incident, which happened on Highway 347 (Pathum Thani–Bang Pa-in Road) near Moo 7, Chiang Rak Yai Subdistrict, Sam Khok District, Pathum Thani. Authorities, including forensic experts from the Ministry of Justice, traffic police, and rescue teams from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation, promptly arrived at the scene. Emergency responders attempted to perform CPR on the injured man at the scene and continued their efforts in an ambulance to Sam Khok Hospital. Unfortunately, the young man, identified as Mr. Taweesak, succumbed to his injuries. Nearby, authorities discovered a small six-wheel Isuzu truck with the license plate from Kalasin. Bloodstains and traces were found on the right side of the truck’s bed. Ms. Kanya, 36, the victim’s aunt, explained that she, her husband, the truck’s driver and her son were seated in the truck’s cabin, while her nephew was seated in the truck bed. After purchasing groceries from the Wat Sadej market, the family was traveling under a bridge when she noticed bystanders staring at their vehicle. Alarmed, she looked back and saw her nephew’s arm dangling out of the truck. They stopped the truck and discovered bloodstains on the side of the vehicle and the severity of her nephew’s condition, prompting them to call for rescue assistance. Mr. Samlee Phubuaophet, 38, the driver, admitted he was unaware of his nephew’s action in standing up during the journey and was shocked to learn what had happened. He mentioned that they routinely use this route. Police Captain Kritsatha Prathumkaew conducted a thorough investigation at the scene and recorded evidence. The victim’s body was sent to the Ministry of Justice’s forensic institute for further examination. Authorities are continuing their investigation to determine the full circumstances surrounding the incident. Picture from responders. -- 2024-11-28 5

ikke1959 Posted November 28, 2024 Posted November 28, 2024 unawareness is a hub in Thailand... as the boy as the driver in this case.. The boy should know that sitting at the truck bed is forbidden but because of a lack of enforcement of laws he was in it.. A driver should always check everything while driving especially when you have passengers.. rear view, and watching what they are doing in the back.. The boy probably was unaware that it was dangerous to stand at the low bridge over the road... Rip to die so sadly ....loss of life that could be avoided 1

Briggsy Posted November 28, 2024 Posted November 28, 2024 I am going to stick my neck out and say this accident was wholly avoidable. 1 1

gargamon Posted November 29, 2024 Posted November 29, 2024 Those kids sure grow quick these days. Only a few weeks ago he could stand up in that overpass no problem at all.

He was a man, a young man, an eighteen-year old or a teenager, he was definitely not a "boy".
