A 59-year-old motorcyclist died on Khlong Khud Mai Road in Chachoengsao after swerving to avoid another bike, losing control, and sliding into oncoming traffic. Police are reviewing CCTV footage as they investigate the fatal collision.
A 59-year-old motorcyclist died after his bike swerved to avoid another vehicle, lost control, flipped, and slid into traffic on August 3 at 8:57 p.m. on Khlong Khud Mai Road in Muang District, Chachoengsao Province. Police were called to a motorcycle collision with a fatality and injuries. At the scene, they found the body of Sumit, 59, lying face-down on the roadside with severe facial injuries and a broken neck. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The other injured motorcyclist sustained minor leg injuries.
Interviewed at the scene, Kravi, 38, said he was riding his motorcycle with his wife and child to buy food when he saw the victim's bike weaving and veering into his lane. He attempted to swerve to avoid it, but the victim's motorcycle grazed his exhaust pipe before flipping. The victim's body then slid across the pavement and struck a third motorcycle coming from behind. Yanantonissa, 21, the rider of the third motorcycle, stated she was heading out to transfer money when she saw the first bike overturn and the victim's body sliding toward her from a distance. The collision happened too suddenly for her to avoid it, and the body came to rest in front of her bike.
Police have documented the scene, photographed evidence, and interviewed both riders involved. They are reviewing CCTV footage in detail and will pursue further legal action.
