Baby delivered by traffic policeman in Thailand

A policeman in Thailand has helped a pregnant woman give birth to a baby girl in the back of a taxi cab after the vehicle became trapped in Bangkok rush hour traffic.

10:10AM BST 28 Sep 2012

Thai policeman Mana Jokkoksung came to the aid of pregnant 19-year-old Chotika Chuennoi after she went into labour before she could reach the hospital.

Mr Jokkoksung was filmed by an onlooker as he delivered the baby girl on the back seat of the vehicle in Bangkok.

Luckily for Ms Chuennoi, the policeman was one of hundreds of Bangkok traffic officers who had been given midwife training to help women in her predicament.

Bangkok streets can handle up to 1.6 million cars on its congested road network but according to reports there are more than four times that number of cars, pickup trucks and motorbikes registered in the Thai capital.

So along with training to deal with road emergencies, traffic police in the Thai capital are also taught to deliver babies.

Officer Mana Jokkoksung now holds the traffic policeman record for delivering the most babies in Bangkok's busy streets.

"I have to pull myself together and try to concentrate and think of the processes that I've learnt from doctors," the officer said.

Ms Chuennoi, the 19 year-old mother was very grateful for his help.

"It is good that we have this project otherwise it would be dangerous for me and my daughter. She is very small and I was so worried because she was in my pants," she said.

Officers from a special division of the police force are given refresher courses every year on medical emergencies by a hospital doctor.

They're not always bad, I suppose ? But where did he get the gloves and the operating room green sheets ?

"Brownie points" indeed, for this officer.

Clearly, someone else had been in her pants a while before the birth.

Bangkok traffic cop sets world record, delivers 47th baby (VIDEO)
Sep 28, 2012

A traffic cop in Thailand set a new record when he delivered his 47th baby on Bangkok's busy streets.

Mana Jokkoksung, 43, has now brought the most babies into the world among the country's multi-talented traffic cops, The Telegraph reported.

Traffic in Bangkok is awful, to say the least Its streets can handle up to 1.6 million cars but reports suggest there are more than four times that number of cars, pickup trucks and motorbikes registered there.

Because of this, Jokkoksung and other officers are given midwife training to help women who are in labor but aren't going to make it to the hospital, Al-Jazeera reported.

"The first time [I delivered a baby] I was shaking, I was excited, scared," Jokkosung told Al-Jazeera. "Scared of the blood coming out, scared of the head coming out. Even now, I wonder if I'll get there on time, if I'll find the car."

The 19-year-old mother of Jokkoksung's latest bundle of joy was very grateful for the help.

"It is good that we have this project otherwise it would be dangerous for me and my daughter. She is very small and I was so worried because she was in my pants," Chotika Chuennoi told The Telegraph.

Another take on the coppers in Thailand. Above and beyond the call of duty. Good for him.
