Kusoldharm Rescue staff killed after alleged bus sideswipe

Darawan Naknakhon




PHUKET: A diving instructor from the Kusoldharm Rescue Foundation died in a motorbike accident yesterday afternoon (Feb 19) in which his body was allegedly dragged for 15 metres by a bus in Talad Yai.

Maj Somchai Nooboon of Phuket City Police said the body of Sakpayom "Ajarn Jack" Tharapong, 37, was found lying near the back wheel of a bus at the end of a15 metre-long trail of blood on Rattanakosin 200 Pi Rd in Talad Yai.

The victim's colleagues from the Kusoldharm Rescue Foundation administered CPR before rushing him to Vachira Hospital where he was pronounced dead shortly after 6pm on Friday (Feb 19).

“Witnesses said they saw the motorbike followed the bus and the bus side-swiped the motorbike which caused it to crash. Then the bus dragged the body of the victim along the road. They shouted for the bus driver to stop,” Maj Somchai told The Phuket News.

The bus driver, 37-year-old Nukul Kaewtawee, told police that he was on his way to Phuket Town when a pick-up tuck in front of him forced him to slow down.

"Then someone shouted to me that there is a body under the bus. I stopped the bus and checked under and saw the victim. I called the police," Nukul said.

Sad that a man who spends his life trying to help and save others ends in such a tragic manner.

If the motorcycle was following the bus, how could he get sideswiped, unless of course he started to undertake the bus when the bis slowed down.

This is Thailand.

All the people that were driving and operating their motor vehicles in the immediate vicinity of the accident just before it happened, were, in all probability, not paying attention and or not practicing defensive driving in the least...rather just merrily going along and preoccupied with thoughts about their next Som Tum meal while haphazardly blending in and rolling along with the flow of the traffic.

Meantime, everyone who is driving is relying, as always, on all the other drivers to see and react favorably to what each other driver is doing regardless of how careless or dangerous or aggressive their driving conduct is while they all believe the other drivers will see them and will give way to one another or be forced to accommodate them or abruptly stop, if need be.

Several people doing what is described above and all at the same time or ( timing ) eventually results in an accident such as this.

If you could have a sky camera watching from above what is unfolding and developing just prior to the accident you would commonly see that many vehicles and or motorcycles in the immediate vicinity of one another are driving in a way that is increasing the chances of an accident happening 5 to 10 fold while if the accident did not happen then commonly it comes "This Close" to happening while 1 or more people just narrowly missed being killed.

And then, after a very close call for 1 or several people involved in the near collision, all of them, as in everyone of them, carry on driving the exact same way without any thoughts at all about slowing down or driving more cautiously or defensively......rather no thought at all because it seemingly does not register with them.

They simply move further along while continuing to drive recklessly and dangerously while they continually increase their chances of an having an accident by the way all of them continue to drive.
