A British man is expected to face new charges after a Thai woman, who was left critically injured in a motorbike crash, allegedly caused by his reckless riding, has died in hospital.

 

The fatal crash occurred on Soi Bongkot 8 in Pattaya on the night of 14 August, when witnesses reported seeing the foreigner performing dangerous stunts and wheelies on a motorbike before colliding with the victim, who had been riding along the same road.

 

The Thai woman, Ms. Jurairat Phettratsa, sustained severe injuries and was rushed to a local hospital, where she remained in critical condition for several days. Despite doctors’ efforts, it was confirmed on the afternoon of 17 August that she had passed away.

 

The British suspect initially denied all wrongdoing when questioned by police, but multiple eyewitness accounts, together with CCTV footage from the scene, directly contradicted his statement. Authorities confirmed that the rider’s passport has been flagged, meaning he cannot leave Thailand while the investigation and legal proceedings are ongoing.

 

Police say the man had already been facing significant charges relating to reckless driving and endangerment, as well as owing compensation to the victim and her family. With her death, prosecutors are expected to upgrade the charges, which could include causing death by dangerous driving under, a crime that carries far more severe penalties.

 

Local residents have expressed anger and frustration at the incident, describing the victim as an innocent road user whose life was cut short by irresponsible behaviour. Social media has also seen a surge of criticism, with calls for stricter enforcement against reckless riding and harsher punishments for foreign offenders in Thailand.

 

Police officials in Pattaya confirmed that the case remains under active investigation and that a full report will be forwarded to prosecutors once all evidence has been reviewed. The suspect remains on bail but under strict legal conditions.

Parents will need to pay but more likely on benefits so a gofundme will follow

Not victim blaming in any way but it would be good to know if she was wearing a helmet.

this is a very sad story, this Engish idiot has ruined his life because he thought he would impress people

 

 

I sort of feel sorry for him being young but he was reckless and likely drunk when it happened

Contrary  to what some people would have you belive not everyone in the UK is on benefits far from it in fact.

 

Though everyone does have the benefit of free heath care and education for their children no matter how much or how little money they have.
