A 25-year-old man was tragically killed in the early hours of 8 June after his Volvo sedan crashed into the rear of a ten-wheeler lorry carrying glass bottles. The collision, which occurred at a traffic light junction in Pathum Thani province, resulted in the driver being decapitated on impact.

 

At around 03:30, Pol. Sub-Lt. Sahasawat Sopha from Suan Phrik Thai Police Station responded to the scene at the Ban Klang traffic lights on Rangsit-Pathum Thani Road. He was joined by forensic doctors from the Ministry of Justice, traffic police and rescue volunteers from the Poh Teck Tung Foundation.

 

At the scene, officers found a Hino 10-wheeled lorry, registered in Nong Bua Lamphu province, stationary in the middle of the intersection. A Volvo sedan, registered in Bangkok, was wedged halfway under the lorry’s rear. Inside the wrecked vehicle, police discovered the body of the male driver, who had been decapitated by the force of the collision. His severed head was found on the back seat.

 

The lorry driver, 58-year-old Mr Prayoon remained at the scene to cooperate with police. He told officers he had been delivering bottles from Chonburi to a recycling facility in central Pathum Thani. As he approached the intersection, he said he was slowly rolling along, when he heard a loud crash at the rear of his truck. His wife, who was seated beside him, was thrown against the front windshield by the impact. Upon inspecting the scene, he discovered the Volvo had rammed into his vehicle without any apparent attempt to brake.

 

The victim’s father later arrived at the scene, devastated. He explained that his son had been returning home to Bang Kadi after visiting friends in the Bangkok University area.

 

Police recorded the scene as evidence and arranged for the deceased’s body to be sent to the Institute of Forensic Medicine at the Ministry of Justice for further examination. Relatives will be contacted to collect the body for funeral rites.

Sleeping

Not limited to nighttime.

I once luckily escaped being rammed. HW 12 about 9:30 AM. I was on the left lane. The fruit carrying pickup ahead on the right lane which they will never leave. Out of nowhere a limousine crashed with extreme high speed into the pickup. Then both sliding along the central ditch.

Outcome unknown.

Others coming who could help. I made my way.
