draftvader Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Unfortunately this behaviour is far too common here. The positive in this incident is that, in the incredibly unfair world of accidents, this one has affected the person at the root of the accident the most. I feel sorry for the Iranian chap. I did note from the image the helmet lying on the floor. Even if it was on it was barely a helmet and can be guaranteed to have not been secured. Nothing will change here whilst it is more cost effective to the government to allow the acceptance of the results of dangerous driving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGImInPattaya Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Sad for them all but at least no one seriously injured or killed except the driver at fault. A very tramadic episode in the poor Iranian fellas holiday however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No common sense, and the people involved and watching will still never learn, they will all carry on doing the same thing. The helmet most likely belonged to the Iranian guy, poor guy wrong place wrong time, but thankfully an innocent person came out of it without serious injury for a change. She learned a hard lesson which resulted in her life, i can't feel sorry for her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chooka Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Why would they perform CPR if she was stll breathing? They probably killed her. Exactly. That was my 1st thought also, everyone is taught that you never perform CPR on a person who breathing on their own. Maintain constant monitoring yes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patje Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 When driving in Thailand,I see this behavior on a daily basis. Even cars drive on the wrong side of the road when the U turn is too far away. Will they ever learn ? How to prevent this stupid and life taking behavior ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yougivemebaby Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Probably a farm girl. Anyone who's driven out in the country knows how bad the drivers are. Already bad enough here but in the country they rarely look when changing lanes. RIP Condolences to the family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite true many times see vehicles coming down the wrong side of the road. apparently if they are flashing their lights you have to get out of their way. That is if you can and if they smash into you with their headlights lights flashing you are in the wrong. Many times we have had to reverse 2 or 3 kms for oncoming cars on the wrongside of the road.

That was my 1st thought also, everyone is taught that you never perform CPR on a person who breathing on their own. Maintain constant monitoring yes. Nah! IMHO No one killed anyone here. Since It is clear from the description that she was already dead from massive head trauma. The light breathing reported was almost certainly 'agonal breathing' (not real breathing) It would have persisted for a few mwinutes after crash. It's not nice to observe - since in these circumstances it almost always indicates the person is beyond hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You to see the girl's death as the positive aspect of this report? Whose helmet did you note as lying on the floor; the victim's, her friend's or the Iranian's? And you have some special way of guaranteeing that the helmet, whoever it belonged to, was not secured? Could you explain what your last nonsensical sentence was supposed to mean?

MMarlow Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Probably a farm girl. What is the relevance of that comment? It's probably just as likely that you're a farm boy as she was a farm girl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooloomooloo Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Forget about the helmet. The lady in question might not have had helmet anyway and, further possibility that if she did have one then it was unsecured. I see it all the time. Driving against the flow of traffic was the killer, I'm sure we all agree. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggsy Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I wonder how much the Iranian had to pay (including the damage to his bike or perhaps it was not his but a rental as he was a tourist). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A1Str8 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 R.I.P but on a side note, I never understood what's up with this driving against traffic and all the other death wishes in Thailand. It seems that they are passionate about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeO Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 When driving in Thailand,I see this behavior on a daily basis. Even cars drive on the wrong side of the road when the U turn is too far away. Will they ever learn ? How to prevent this stupid and life taking behavior ? One might think that with all of these accidents occurring, the BiB might engage in a campaign to stop this 'against the flow' driving by motorcyclists (and of course, in lots of cases, by pickup truck drivers...!!). I was in Taiwan when they did exactly that. It took about two months, during which the culprits paid increasingly higher fines, but lo and behold, the message eventually sank in. You do not see such behavioiur in any of the major cities these days, although no doubt it continues up country. It would be a very simple matter for the BiB to follow the same plan in Thailand, and it would have an enormous impact on their weekly 'take-home' pay...!!
