An 18-year-old male university student died instantly when his motorcycle slammed into the back of a pickup truck on Phahonyothin Road in Pathum Thani. The first-year business administration student was riding a Honda Forza 350 at around 4:00 a.m. on November 12 when the collision occurred. Police and rescue workers found the victim lying in the road with his motorcycle's front end severely damaged about 10 meters from the damaged pickup.
At 4:00 a.m. on November 12, 2026, Police Lieutenant Adisak Katsak, an investigator at Khlong Luang Police Station, received a report of a motorcycle crashing into the rear of a pickup truck on the outbound parallel lanes of Phahonyothin Road near a bone factory in Khlong Nueng, Khlong Luang District, Pathum Thani. He rushed to the scene with traffic police, a forensic doctor from Thammasat Chalerm Phrakiat Hospital, and Por Teck Tung Foundation rescue workers.
At the scene, they found the deceased, identified only as 'Mr. A' (pseudonym), age 18, a first-year Business Administration student at a well-known university. His body lay in the middle of the road where skid marks were visible. Nearby was a Honda Forza 350 motorcycle with Nakhon Si Thammarat plates, its front end crushed. About 10 meters away sat a Toyota pickup with Bangkok plates, its rear bed damaged from the impact.
The 38-year-old pickup driver told police he was driving from Sampheng to Phetchabun to sell goods when he heard a loud crash at the rear of his vehicle. He pulled to the left and discovered the young man lying dead in the road.
The victim's older sibling said the student had left a condominium to go stay with a friend. After documenting the scene, Lieutenant Adisak had the Por Teck Tung Foundation transport the body to Thammasat Chalerm Phrakiat Hospital for a forensic examination, while coordinating with the parents to receive the body for funeral rites. The pickup driver was taken to Khlong Luang Police Station for further questioning.
