A 20-year-old university student died when her motorcycle was struck by a container truck in a construction zone on a Pathum Thani road on April 27, with investigators examining whether the truck's rear wheel caused the fatal impact.
A tragic accident claimed the life of a 20-year-old second-year student from a well-known private university when her motorcycle was struck by a container truck. On April 27, 2025, Deputy Superintendent Sirot Nabnian of Khlong Luang Police Station in Pathum Thani received a report of a collision between a truck and motorcycle resulting in one fatality on Bang Khan-Nong Suea Road in Khlong Luang District, Pathum Thani. Officers coordinated with the Chulalongkorn University Medical Examiner's Office and rushed to the scene with rescue personnel from Ta Khlong Municipality and the Po Tek Tung Foundation.
The accident occurred in a construction zone where water pipes were being laid, with barrier rails in place. The victim, a 20-year-old female second-year student from a prestigious private university, was found about 10 meters away from her Yamaha Fino motorcycle, registered in Ratchaburi, which was completely destroyed. The container truck involved was registered in Samut Prakan.
Investigators questioned the truck driver, 31-year-old Prinya, who stated he was transporting coconut water from Nawanakorn Industrial Estate to Laem Chabang. He reported seeing the motorcycle rider in the area but was uncertain at what point she had overtaken him. Preliminary evidence suggests the truck's rear wheel struck the victim fatally.
Officers documented the scene and the Po Tek Tung Foundation transported the body for detailed autopsy at the Medical Examiner's Institute at Chulalongkorn University Hospital. Legal proceedings are underway before the family can take the deceased for religious funeral rites.
