Picture from responders.

 

A serious road crash occurred in the early hours of the morning of 8 February, when a saloon car collided with a motorcycle on Chalong Krung Road in the Lat Krabang district of Bangkok, resulting in one fatality and another person sustaining severe injuries.

 

At approximately 01:15 the Katanyu Foundation unit at Lat Krabang Police Station received a report of a collision near Soi Chalong Krung 1. Emergency responders were dispatched to the scene to provide assistance.

 

Upon arrival, rescue teams discovered a grey Honda saloon car with Bangkok registration plates. The vehicle’s front end and windscreen had sustained significant damage. A short distance away, a red-and-black Honda motorcycle, also with Bangkok plates, was found with its front section completely wrecked.

 

Two individuals, both in critical condition, were found near the wreckage. Rescue workers provided immediate first aid before transferring them to Lat Krabang Hospital. One of the victims, a 23-year-old Thai woman, was later pronounced dead. The second victim, a man, remains in hospital with serious injuries.

 

Police from Chalo Khenoi Station are currently investigating the cause of the crash, but initial reports suggests the motorcycle was on the wrong side of the road, when the collision occurred.

Alot of those two lane roads can be made into four lane roads to prevent that game of chicken they play to overtake vehicles in the wrong lane. Thats money they think is not worth spending i guess, i would never drive on those highways
