webfact Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Chiang Mai teenager survives big bike collision but loses leg – VIDEO By The Thaiger A 13 year old Chiang Mai teenager is lucky to escape with his life after a high-speed crash in front of the Sri Arun Market in the San Kampaeng district of Chiang Mai. The person posting video of the incident estimated he was traveling at 150 kph when he hit another motorbike, before sliding into a car at high speed. He recorded the boy flashing past his car’s dash cam just moments before he hit another motorbike. Two other people were injured in the incident. The teenager was riding a 1000cc Kawasaki big bike. He survived the crash but lost a leg in the incident and was rushed to hospital. His sister went online to apologise to the other motorists and emergency responders for wasting their time attending to her brother. She said their family had sent him to get big bike training although he was too young to have a motorbike licence. He was active in local off-road racing. The Thailand BigBike Society has blamed his family for allowing the teenager to ride the bigbike in the first place. In Thailand you must be over 15 year of age to have a motorbike license but there is no restriction on the power of the bike you may ride. เปิดคลิป อุทาหรณ์เตือนใจ #เด็ก13ขับบิ๊กไบค์ขาขาดกระเด็น บิ๊กไบค์ zx10r 1000 cc.ชนกับรถ จยย.ฮอนด้าดรีม ก่อนลื่นไถลไปชนกับ รถยนต์อีกคัน เด็กผู้ชายอายุ 13 ปีคนขับบิ๊กไบค์บาดเจ็บสาหัส ความเร็วที่ขับขี่ไม่น่าจะต่ำกว่า 150 km/h Posted by Bigbike Society Thailand on Sunday, July 7, 2019 Source: https://thethaiger.com/news/chiang-mai/chiang-mai-teenager-survives-big-bike-collision-but-loses-leg-video -- © Copyright The Thaiger 2019-07-08 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilotman Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Nothing much to be said. The parents sent an underage kid for big bike training, and presumably bought the bike for him. Enough said, irresponsibility on all sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackstask Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Absolutely no sympathy for him or his brainless parents for allowing him to have and ride anything at the age of 13. Only in Thailand! Life is cheap here. That's why Thailand is Top of the List for Traffic deaths in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmaxdan Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Underage and no license so presumably no insurance payout. Lets hope the so called parents have a huge set of bills to contend with. They deserve to be financially ruined over letting their idiot son loose on the public roads on a bike like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weaver93 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Lucky he only lost a leg.. Could have killed a lot of innocent people as well... Parents should be prosecuted.....IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holy cow cm Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 No way he can stop that momentum at that high speed. But yet again looking at what he crashed in to, it is a Thai rider crossing the road like a headless chicken without any concern of safety too.

This young 13 year old would only be eligible if he died and thus had not passed on his genes. Other idiots who perform amazingly stupid acts ending in their death are not eligible if they have passed on their genes ie.had a child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but the license as demasdan also stated is for the person. No license automatically disqualify claims on the insurance so no license no insurance.

worgeordie Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Going that fast on any road in Thailand is just crazy, especially passing a market,where drivers just pull out,without looking,or stop without warning,the parents now have an invalid son,and it's their fault for buying the big bike for him. Underage,so he has no insurance,hefty bill for repairs to other vehicles,for his stupid parents. regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
