Thanawan expressed her disappointment, calling on the driver responsible for the damage to come forward and accept responsibility.

Two weeks ago, a horrific hit-and-run accident unfolded in the early hours of this morning on Sukhumvit Road in Pattaya involving a collision between a mysterious sedan and a motorcycle sidecar, which injured three passengers, one critically, before fleeing the scene.

This hit-and-run happened in the early hours of the morning on Sukhumvit-Pattaya 85 Road, heading towards Sattahip in the Nongprue sub-district of Banglamung district, Chon Buri.

The aftermath of the and-run was a scene of chaos. The motorcycle sidecar had suffered considerable damage, looking more like twisted metal than a vehicle.

A medical team from Bangkok Pattaya Hospital, along with rescue workers, were dispatched to the hit-and-run site. They found three injured individuals: a Thai national, 40 year old Opas Thupnamkham, a 47 year old Burmese man, Zaw Moe, and an unidentified Burmese woman, who had sustained severe head injuries.
