Noodle vendor killed in motorcycle crash after losing control on bridge, collides with pickup truck
A 55-year-old noodle vendor died when her motorcycle lost control on a bridge curve in Nonthaburi, crossed into oncoming traffic, and struck a pickup truck on April 30.
At 6:30 p.m. on April 30, police from Bang Sri Mueang Station and rescue workers arrived at the scene of a motorcycle-pickup truck collision with a fatality on the Bangkruay-Trai Noi overpass in Bang Krang subdistrict, Mueang district, Nonthaburi province. The body of Nusara, a 55-year-old noodle vendor, was found lying in front of a white Toyota Vigo pickup truck. A red and black Yamaha motorcycle was found nearby, both vehicles sustaining significant damage to their fronts.
Dashcam footage from the pickup truck captured the incident, showing Nusara riding down from the bridge at high speed before losing control on the curve. She struck an orange rubber barrier, crossed into the opposite lane, and collided violently with the pickup truck.
Thanedet, 67, the pickup truck driver, explained that he owned a rice curry shop at Bang Sri Mueang market and was driving home after closing for the day. As he approached the curved section before the bridge overpass, he saw the motorcycle descending at high speed, strike the orange barrier, and cross into his lane. He observed the victim attempting to drag her foot on the ground as if trying to brake before she crashed forcefully into the front of his vehicle.
