Former leading actress from a major Thai TV channel, Chadaporn Rattanakorn, was injured in a car crash on the morning of 22 April, after her Mercedes-Benz veered off the road and overturned onto its side. The incident occurred while she was en route to Chanthaburi for a personal errand.

 

At approximately 09:30 local time, Pol. Sub Lt. Issara Aroka of the Nong Yai Police Station was alerted to the crash by rescue officials from the Silatham Samakom Foundation, Nong Yai Unit. Emergency responders rushed to the scene on Highway 344 (Ban Bueng–Klaeng Road), at kilometre marker 58-200, in the Khao Sok area of Nong Yai district, Chonburi Province.

 

Upon arrival, they found a white Mercedes-Benz with Bangkok licence plates in the central reservation. The driver, 55-year-old Ms. Chadaporn Rattanakorn, known for her television and film roles in the 1990s, sustained injuries to her head, chest pains, and a bruised ribs, with bleeding from the mouth.

 

Rescue workers promptly transported her to Nong Yai Hospital for emergency treatment. Doctors have since confirmed that her condition is stable and she is recovering well.

 

Speaking from hospital, Ms. Chadaporn, also known by her nickname “Da,” recounted the moment. “I was driving from Bangkok to Chanthaburi for an errand. The crash happened on a stretch of road recently resurfaced with black asphalt but without lane markings. Visibility was poor, and the car suddenly skidded and dropped into the central ditch. It hit a clump of grass and a pile of dirt, and the next thing I knew, the car had flipped and landed on its side. Thankfully, passersby came to help me out.”

 

Born on 8 November 1970, Chadaporn began her career in the film Nai See-oui Sae-Ung and later gained fame through a string of TV dramas including Din Nam Lom Fai and Phai Daeng. She is best remembered for her role as Pilantha in the cult classic Sirasamarn. Also credited under the name Warangchat Rattanasirirot, she starred in various television dramas such as Chao Ying Saeng Suree, Fire of Passion, Kasattiya, and Tawan Tho Saeng.
