Tragedy struck on a railway crossing in Huai Thalaeng district, Nakhon Ratchasima, as two women involved in a collision between a pickup truck and a motorcycle succumbed to their injuries despite initial medical intervention.

 

The accident occurred at 11:45 on January 3, when emergency services from Hook 31 Huai Thalaeng received a report of a crash involving a blue motorcycle and a pickup truck loaded with vegetables. The women on the motorcycle had attempted an illegal U-turn at the base of a bridge.

 

The motorcycle’s rider, Mrs Nimnuan Humthaisong, 62, and her passenger, Mrs Wanpen Teepthaisong, 50, both from Moo 2, Mueang Phlapphla subdistrict, suffered critical injuries after the pickup truck, driven by Mr Thanapol Kueram, from Buriram, struck their vehicle. Mrs Nimnuan and Mrs Wanpen were residents of the same community.

 

One casualty, the passenger, was found thrown from the motorcycle onto the road. The rider was stuck in the shattered windscreen, with the bonnet crumpled onto her.

 

Hook 31 responders rushed the victims to Huai Thalaeng Hospital for emergency care. Both women were later pronounced dead, shortly after arriving.

 

The crash site was promptly attended by senior police officers, including Pol. Col. It Bunyarit, Superintendent of Huai Thalaeng Police Station; Pol. Lt. Col. Punyapong Lertmallikaporn, Deputy Superintendent; and Pol. Lt. Nopadon Klawacha, investigating officer.

 

Investigations are underway to establish the precise cause of the incident.
