In an incident on 5 April, a mother and her daughter lost their lives after the motorcycle they were travelling on crashed into a tree in the Phanom district of Surat Thani. A one-year-old boy, who was also on the motorcycle, suffered serious injuries.

 

At 14:05 emergency services were alerted to the scene of the crash on a section of road in Moo 7, Km 74. The motorcycle, a red and black Honda Wave 100, was found without a licence plate. Three individuals were discovered at the site, all critically injured and unresponsive.

Tragically, despite efforts to save them, two individuals passed away. At 15:45 the mother and her 12-year-old daughter were confirmed dead, while the young boy remains in critical condition.

 

The identities of the deceased have not yet been confirmed, and their relatives have not come forward to assist.

With no available or economical public transport in most of Thailand, people have very little choice other riding motorbikes.

Yes, it is dangerous but there is little or no alternative.

Rural folk usually have zero options.

So sad when it all goes wrong, as in this case.
