Amid the chaos of gridlocked streets triggered by the recent earthquake in Myanmar, an unnamed cyclist emerged as an unexpected hero in Thailand. On March 28th, a day marked by tremors that swept through the region, this cyclist selflessly guided a private ambulance through the congested roads, possibly saving the life of a gravely ill patient.

 

The story surfaced online when 23-year-old ambulance driver, Phasawit Karated, shared his experience on Facebook. Accompanying his heartfelt message was a photograph of the mystery cyclist, although his identity remains unknown. According to Phasawit, who works for Thitikarn Ambulance Service, the incident took place as he was transporting a critical patient reliant on a ventilator from Krungthai Pakkret Hospital to Krungthai Pathumthani Hospital.

 

Describing the moment they left the hospital, Phasawit shared, "As soon as we encountered heavy traffic, a cyclist approached, promising to clear our path." True to his word, the cyclist navigated perilous traffic, waving down vehicles and forming an impromptu passage for the ambulance over a stretch of more than five kilometres.

 

 

 

Thanks to the cyclist’s efforts, the ambulance reached its destination 10 to 15 minutes faster, crucial time that might have been lost in gridlock, potentially making a life-or-death difference for the patient in critical condition requiring constant care.

 

Phasawit expressed his gratitude and awe for the cyclist's courage, noting, "He rode without fear, risking his life for a stranger. Such kindness is rare." Hoping to personally thank the cyclist, Phasawit shared the story online, urging others to always make way for emergency vehicles.

 

The post quickly gained traction, with many commending the cyclist's selfless bravery. Despite remaining nameless, he is hailed as a guardian angel by those who witnessed his heroic act that day, reported The Thaiger.
