South Pattaya - Speeding Biker Hits Foreigner
Speeding Biker Hits Foreigner
At 2.40 am on 2nd May the Pattaya Police were informed that a motorbike had hit a foreigner who was crossing South Pattaya and 3rd Road junction. The Thai motorcyclist and foreigner were both injured.
At the scene the police saw that the Thai motorcyclist was okay so assisted the seriously injured foreigner first. He had a number of head wounds and a deep cut on his ankle. The Sawang rescuers and tourist police volunteers quickly rushed him to the hospital before anyone could find his name or nationality.
Mr. Phongphat Khamkiaw, aged 22, stated that he rode off when the traffic lights on his side turned green but this foreigner suddenly crossed the road in front of him and he couldn’t brake in time.
The police allowed Mr. Phongphat to go to the hospital after recording his statement and will have to wait for both parties to recover before setting an appointment for them to negotiate expenses involved.
