[kurgen]

On Monday Afternoon, Police Lieutenant Colonel Jaleurm from Na-Jomtien Police Station was called to the scene of a fatal road accident which occurred on the Sukumvit Road in Na-Jomtien.

The crash involved a 6-wheel cement truck and a motorbike. The motorbike and its driver came off the worse. The driver of the motorbike sustained a fatal head trauma and was pronounced dead at the scene and a passenger on the bike was seriously injured and remains in a critical condition at the Queen Sirigit Hospital located in Sattahip District.

The driver of the truck decided not to remain at the scene of the crash and is currently being sought by Police.

Eye witnesses reported that the cement truck was travelling behind a green colored car which broke sharply. To avoid a rear-end collision, the cement truck driver urgently changed lanes but failed to see the motorbike travelling just in front of the green car. A collision took place and the motorbike driver aged only 17 was crushed under the wheels of the truck.

How hard can it be to locate the driver

Go to the company, ask who was driving and where he lives, then go kick his door in.

Not exactly rocket science is it, specially if inspector clueless here can work it out

Problem is that very often the company doesn't actually know who is driving what truck when. This is exacerbated by the fact that truck drivers often share their shifts with brothers, friends etc.

Tragic, RIP to the girl and condolences to het family and friends.

I understand that the boy on the motor bike was travelling the wrong way down Sukhumvit Rd against the flow of traffic ????

Very sad. My condolences to the family and friends of the victim.

Out of curiousity were they boys or girls and what school did they attend?

[FATNAPPY]

Boys, not sure about the school although there is one about 200 metres away along Sukhumvit

very true, so you dust the steering wheel for the last set of finger prints, then you can match against any one of the drivers logged as using the truck that day!...

Also, there would be an eye witness in the yard to who left the yard in the truck, followed by possible eye witness accounts of who left the truck after hitting the boy ( someone would have saw ) .. then you match the description to the person on duty that day...

isnt hard really, but then again TIT... far to much work for them

RIP

Children have motorbikes but little road sense and no helmets or licence?

In these cases I do feel the parents or whoever takes care of the child or provided access to the motorbike has contributed to the situation.

Children and traffic don't mix, or rather when they meet it is a one sided contest.

I hope the child's friends will remember his last moments when they choose to ride.

this is one of the reasons we will not allow our son to have a motorbike ,even though he has enough money of his own to buy it.

every time he askes i just say how is your mate ,out of his coma yet.? because that is where he has been for the last three months after coming off his m/bike. poor little sod.

Co-incidence? I was sent this picture today by a motorbike friend. It's a Swedish accident - the rider and the two people in the car died.
