An 82-year-old man riding an electric tricycle was killed on the spot after being struck by a high-powered motorcycle while crossing a road in Phrae province.

 

The fatal collision occurred at around 13:00 on 31 May, near the irrigation canal bridge intersection in Moo 9, Mueang Mo Subdistrict, close to Ban Kwao, Moo 5, Kanchana Subdistrict, Mueang Phrae District.

 

Police Lieutenant Colonel Sriprai Satchanaranpan, deputy inspector at Mueang Phrae Police Station, responded to the emergency call. Accompanied by local patrol officer Pol. Sub-Lt. Pokpong Sinmanee and rescue personnel from Phrae Rescue Foundation, they arrived at the scene to find a blue electric tricycle badly damaged beneath a roadside guardrail.

 

Nearby, the body of Mr. Manit 82, a former village headman of Nong Bo, Moo 4, Kanchana Subdistrict, was discovered. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

 

Approximately five metres from the tricycle, police found a damaged Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle. The rider, a young man identified only as Mr. Bank from Mueang Mo, sustained minor injuries. He told police he was returning to his shop after lunch when the electric vehicle suddenly crossed into his path, leaving him no time to avoid the collision.

 

Investigators have recorded the scene and are proceeding with the legal process. Residents who witnessed the aftermath expressed growing concern over the increasing number of elderly individuals riding electric motorcycles and tricycles, many of whom lack experience or sufficient reflexes.

These guys riding their disability scooters think they have super powers. 

 

Here in Pattaya some foreigners buy these dangerous, cheap, nasty, unroadworthy vehicles and think they own the bloody road. 

 

I see them regularly on soi Buakhou, holding up the traffic.

Take the baht bus guys, you can walk freely, get off your bums, get some exercise, all you lazy sods, loafers and slackers 😂
