Thais love "Rubber-Necking".

Sounds like it was not the truck driver,s fault to me. Either the victim or the food cart driver would appear to be at fault, and no way can a truck driver avoid a person suddenly thrown in front of his vehicle. Probably took off to avoid the paperwork, not the brightest thing to do

Pls, catch this stupid driver and charge him 500 Baht

Poor man , R.i.P.

Another victim of this country 's failure to produce aware drivers.

And would the motorbike kitchen be legal ,I very much think not but blame someone else

Shame on you for a comment like this. In a tragedy there's no time for sarcasm!

Reap what you sow.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Very possible it happened that way but the driver should have stopped
