webfact Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Young Lopburi motorcyclist voices thrill of high-speed riding, dies 2 hours later By The Nation A 21-year-old Lopburi motorcyclist was killed in a high-speed crash today (June 15) – merely two hours after posting on Facebook that “[riding a motorbike] alone is the best, I can go as fast as I wish”. On being notified of the accident, Samre Metropolitan Police officers and a medical team from King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital rushed to the spot to find the body of the young man next to his mangled motorbike with his limbs broken. A security guard who witnessed the accident said the man was riding at high speed when he hit a road barrier. The body was sent to King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital for an autopsy and will be returned later to his family for a funeral.

Popular Post generealty Posted June 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2020 Very glad he never took anybody else with him. Wonder if he has before though. Sorry he died but it would have happened sooner than later and at least this saved others from harm or death 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure he was frightened, as he did not have but a split second once he crashed. As my Thai friend I am now drinking coffee with has said "He crashed at high speed and his soul was ripped from the body immediately, his family will believe he will return and it was his time to go". If that does not show you how Thai's feel about death and taking precautions, all I can say is I think his views say it all..... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wearing a helmet or not ,at high speed no amount of gear is going to save you. If you are doing over a hundred and you hit a barrier,you will be dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Dude Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 No sympathy from me, asking for it really but just glad he didn't take someone else with him. One less selfish little <deleted> on the roads is all it is to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Imagine a wise person would have told him he would die within a year if he would continue to ride a bike. How high is the chance that he would have stopped it? How high is even the chance that he would have ridden any slower? When I was young I also thought I was invincible. I didn't ride too crazy and I survived it. But some of my friends died. Did that convince me to ride a little slower? Yes, sure, maybe for an hour or two... He is dead and likely he enjoyed his life until a minute or two before he died. So in a way he had a good life - just a little shorter than he probably anticipated.
