Jonathan Fairfield Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Woman and young son die in parked car in BangkokThe bodies of a 49-year-old woman and her five-year-old son have been submitted for autopsies after they were found dead in their car with the engine running at a restaurant parking lot in Bangkok's Lat Phrao district on Friday night.Boonnam Dussadee rushed his wife Sutthida Sakul-eiw and son to Paolo Memorial Chaokchai 4 Hospital after he found them unconscious in the car at about 9.30pm - but they were already dead.Boonnam ate with friends at the restaurant for about an hour while the wife and son waited in the car.There was no sign of a struggle in the car and the bodies had no wounds, said Chokchai Police Station superintendent Colonel Chairop Junnawat yesterday.The car in which the mother and son died will be checked to see if a malfunction caused their deaths.

NCC1701A Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) "Boonnam ate with friends at the restaurant for about an hour while the wife and son waited in the car." yeah old "Boonnam" is a class act. Sad. RIP Thai people. Maybe a old car with a hole in the exhaust pipe? slowly filed the car somehow? or a big truck idling next to their car, windows up, air cond on?

Bullie Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Due to the rather unpleasant and eco-unfriendly habit of letting the engine run stationary no doubt. Coupled with a faulty exhaust system. We live next to a restaurant - unfortunately- and it happens all the time. Thai like their car to be cool when they come back from lunch - who cares about the people living in the soi choking on exhaustfumes - not his problem! If it weren't for my wife I would carkey them all. In a way it's poetic justice, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trogers Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Carbon monoxide got into the passenger compartment, probably via the rear booth. Heard this happened over 30 years ago in Singapore to a couple who had sex with the air-con on and engine running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More Thainess. Looks very similar to me to when I see foreigners (many many times) bringing their Thai ladies into a restaurant for him to eat with his foreign friends. ...she is usually left totally alone and ignored, while he and his friends spend their time laughing and chatting together. Better he just let her go off with her own friends than sitting there bored and alone. My condolences to the family and friends of the two deceased.

The counter argument to that is Thai women get jealous if they aren't invited or allowed to be present at social things... I've had the argument multiple times with many gfs over the years and its simply a fact that I don't prefer to go to Thai only social events because they bore me... I would rather go out with my friends or so even alone to avoid the stupidity of drunken Thais singing karaoke and having idiot conversations about the somtam..

2unique Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Sounds like a nice guy, leaving the kids and wife in the car for an hour whilst he's off eating dinner with friends. More Thainess. Bit unfair to blame him w/out knowing the reason why they remained in the car. he may have been scheduled into a business dinner, the wife didn't want to be bored and would rather facebook in the car or a fight over nothing made her choose to sulk in the car ... he may well be a classless act however let's take into consideration the natue of some (Thai) women before we write off a possible shining beacon of society Example: Wife - pick us up from shopping, have traffic and cannot get a taxi Hubby - But I have that dinner Wife - How long dinnner Hubby - Sigh Wife - Pick us up on the way and we can wait in car or go massage Hubby - Wait in car? I will have to rush my meeting!!? Wife Sigh Hubby - Ok Ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better he just let her go off with her own friends than sitting there bored and alone. My condolences to the family and friends of the two deceased. Personally, I can not count how many times I've taken Thai family and friends to dinner, or attended all Thai gatherings, where I was basically ignored, except for the occasionally Thai who comes by to practice the one line of English that they know: "Hello, good morning", regardless of the time of day. In the over eight years that I've lived here in the LOS, I can count on my right hand the number of times that I have taken my wife out and chatted away with other farangs with her sitting out of the scope of the conversation. And interestingly enough, all the farangs where friends of her's before I met them. Although she speaks darn good English for a Thai, she can't keep up when we switch to talking regional American or British at a fast pace. And she has never complained once, on the contrary, she says she'd like to see me hook up with mutual farang friends more often. It's compromise and it keeps the relationship stable. But on the flip side, it's very seldom that I hook up with farangs who don't have a native Thai G/F or wife with them. Then the farangs talk English, and Thais talk Thai, sometimes we all talk together and have a good time. It's all relative to your perspective and experience, and from my experience, I'm not seeing what you're seeing. Very rarely. Generally tourists with a Thai girl who is their escort while on vacation. In the expat community? I very rarely see anything like that. Did you ever stop to think how often those same Thai ladies take their escort, B/F, or husband into a restaurant or gathering or their village where they, if non-Thai speakers, are left out in the cold? In any good relationship, it's compromise. Quid pro quo: "something for something." Reciprocity. Google it if you don't understand. You and I obviously live in the same country, but also live in different worlds. I'm not knocking what you're saying, I'm just saying that that is not my experience as an expat.

How could they use the air con without the engine running and just maybe she and or the child was tired and wanted to sleep in the car instead of eating with the husband.

HerbalEd Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 It's easy to tell if they died of carbon monoxide poisoning. Because of the lack of oxygen the skin turns pink and the lips bright red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveller45 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I mean, it didn't happen to me yet, but Carbon MONOXIDE (as opposed to dioxide) poisoning seems to have all kinds of nasty side-effects, like feeling very unwell indeed, having to vomit etc., before you get anywhere near life threatening. That should normally prompt people to open the door and get out. Even if not that, how broken would an exhaust have to be before substantial amounts can enter the car?
