At 10:21 AM on May 7, 2569, Deputy Sergeant Major Natthawut Prabsakul, Investigation Officer at Bang Phli Police Station, received a report of a fatal truck trailer accident on Theppharat Road, parallel express lane heading out, kilometer marker 18 in Samut Prakan province. He rushed to the scene with medical examiners from King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital and Thai Red Cross Foundation personnel.
The victim, identified as Khun Mong Soe, a 34-year-old Myanmar national, was found with severe head trauma from the truck trailer's wheels. His Honda motorcycle bearing a Bangkok license plate was discovered about 500 meters away. The truck trailer was located but the driver was missing, having fled the scene. Police found identification documents naming a 57-year-old man, with blood and brain matter detected on the trailer's left rear wheel.
CCTV footage revealed the motorcyclist was traveling in the far left lane when, seeing the truck approaching in his mirror, he suddenly braked to avoid hitting a curb. This caused his bike to skid on sand, lose control, and collide with the truck trailer behind him. The impact threw him directly under the rear wheels, where he was crushed. The truck driver continued without stopping, but was later identified by witnesses who alerted authorities.
