Why it is not a good idea to jump a red light.
Late at night, those who drive here in Pattaya would have noticed that many drivers completely disregard red traffic lights and decide that waiting for the light to turn green is an inconvenience which can easily be avoided by ignoring the signal and taking a chance. In this story we show you what can happen if taking the chance becomes the wrong decision. Police and rescue workers were called to the Pattaya Third Road intersection with the Central Pattaya Road late on Sunday Night to deal with a motorbike versus motorbike collision. Police quickly realized that the offending bike driver was Khun Siduan aged 30 who confessed to jumping the red light. She collided with another bike driven by Khun Kumron aged 61 who sustained multiple injuries including a suspected spinal injury. Khun Siduan who remained at the scene received only a minor arm injury but will now have to cover the cost of the other driver’s injuries and will be charged by Police with reckless driving causing injury. A lesson for all of us to abide by the rules of the road regardless of the time of day and lack of traffic on the road.
