Car Hits Motorcycle With Mother, 7-Month-Old Baby
A white sedan struck a motorcycle carrying a mother and her 7-month-old baby on Phet Kasem Road in Bangkok; the driver claimed he accidentally hit the accelerator, but the family fears the case may be dismissed without proper investigation.
A white sedan sideswiped and struck a motorcycle carrying a woman holding her 7-month-old baby on the back seat, according to a video posted on the Facebook page 'Sor Pao — This Needs Attention.' The incident occurred on Phet Kasem Road 69 in Bangkok as the motorcyclist and his wife, who was holding their 7-month-old child, were heading home. The impact sent both riders to the ground in a dangerous collision.
The family has filed an initial police report but expressed concern that the case may be quietly dismissed, and they are seeking advice on how to proceed. A witness at the scene who helped the victims revealed that the driver told them the collision was unintentional and that he had stepped on the accelerator by mistake. The driver apologized to those involved. The witness, who is a customer of the motorcyclist (a chicken vendor supporting his family), felt compassion for the 7-month-old child and wanted the incident to receive proper attention and fair resolution. The sedan driver may not realize that the collision was recorded on video from the witness's vantage point.
