Motorcyclist "almost beheaded" by hanging wires in Ban Chang

Thailand's infamous hanging wires are in the news again. 

 

This time a motorcyclist riding home in Ban Chang, Rayong, failed to spot the wires in Soi Tessaban 64.

 

He appeared to have come off his bike and was nearly decapitated, reported Naew Na, before he was helped by a female trader.

 

Kittisak, 25, was taken to hospital by a rescue foundation.

 

Later electrical authorities were on the scene and determined it involved cables owned by a private firm. They cut the wires down and intend to prosecute.

 

Relatives of the victim also arrived at the scene announcing their intentions of prosecuting the firm also.

 

Microsoft founder Bill Gates once posted pictures of the unsightly cables while on holiday in Thailand prompting the Thai PM to spend billions of baht burying them. 

 

Much work has been done in Bangkok and other cities such as Pattaya but many cables remain an eyesore in Thailand, notes Thaivisa.

Perhaps if I tell Bill Gates I'll change from Linux to Windows he might visit us?

He may well say a derivative of Linux to you for not running Windows in the first ..

Maybe the FUTURE in TH, give better CABLE and WIRE environment.

 

IF they learn how to do, maybe the RULER of city need a trip to NORTH of EUROPE to see how is done...

 

Also if they are there they can GO PARIS, (FRANCE) to see how they clean waste water for the citizen of PARIS...

 

Ciao and keep well out there,  ????

Looks like it NCC1701A. His lucky day But those wires are an eyesaw and the companies who just throw them on the ground and dont pick them deserve to be prosecuted. But then again most Thais just throw things on the ground

I bet they were coming out of the woodwork scenting baht.  It's the same syndrome if you are lucky enough to hit a stray dog; fifteen owners will emerge claiming it.
