The Sawang Boriboon Rescue Radio Centre in Pattaya received a report at 06.15 on December 18, of a road crash involving a car and a motorcycle with a sidecar on Thetsaban Huai Yai Road in Huai Yai Subdistrict, Bang Lamung District, Chonburi. Rescue teams and Huai Yai Police Station officers promptly responded to the scene.

 

Upon arrival, police facilitated traffic control while rescue teams inspected the accident site. The driver of a white Honda Jazz, license plate from Chonburi, had lost control and crashed into a residential house, damaging the structure. The driver, Mr. Mintada Thammakiao, 23, was found at the scene and cooperated with police. Nearby, a severely damaged Honda Wave 100 motorcycle with a blue-black sidecar, license plate from Chonburi, was discovered. The vehicle had been split into pieces due to the impact, with debris scattered in different directions.

 

On the road, rescuers found Ms. Tassanee Somsap, 54, critically injured and barely breathing. She was lying in a pool of blood. Rescue workers performed first aid and CPR in an attempt to save her life before urgently transporting her to Wat Yanasangwararam Hospital. Concerned locals gathered around, worried for her safety, as Ms. Tassanee was a well-known resident often seen riding her sidecar motorcycle to give alms to monks each morning.

 

Mr. Mintada, the driver of the car, told police that he had dropped his girlfriend off at work and was driving home along Thetsaban Huai Yai Road. He stated that he was unaware of where Ms. Tassanee had come from and only realised the collision had occurred after hitting the rear of her sidecar motorcycle. The impact caused him to lose control and crash into a house. Shocked by the incident, he quickly contacted authorities for assistance.

 

Meanwhile, Ms. Tassanee’s husband and relatives arrived at the scene after being informed of the crash. They explained that she routinely left home early to buy food and give alms. When she did not return home as usual, they became worried until a neighbour called to inform them of the collision.

 

Police officers from Huai Yai Police Station documented the scene and took Mr. Mintada into custody for a breathalyzer test. Authorities are also reviewing CCTV footage from the area to ensure a fair investigation for all parties involved.

 

The case remains under investigation as authorities work to determine the exact cause of the incident.

I wonder if she pulled out in front of him without looking?
