Motorcyclist dies in crash on Rojana Road in Ayutthaya
A 23 year old man tragically lost his life in a motorcycle accident today, January 14, at 5am. The incident occurred on Rojana Road in the outbound direction, near kilometre marker 10 in Sam Ruean subdistrict, Bang Pa-in district, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province.
Police Lieutenant Colonel Thaworn Saengsai from Bang Pa-in Police Station was notified and arrived at the scene along with the Ayutthaya Ruam Jai Association.
The victim, Alis, was discovered lying on his back in the rightmost lane near the central road island, wearing a jacket.
He had severe head injuries, and a significant amount of blood was present. Nearby, a damaged black full-face helmet was found, which had detached during the crash.
Approximately 50 metres away, a Yamaha Filano motorcycle, registered in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, was found toppled over, showing scrapes on both sides.
Witnesses reported to Panya Choomanee from the Ayutthaya Ruam Jai Association that the motorcycle had overturned in the middle of the road, prompting their immediate response.
The deceased had been wearing a helmet but the force of the crash dislodged it, causing his head to hit a tree and the central road island.
Upon investigation, police found a long scrape mark on the road and the island, along with damaged motorcycle parts scattered around. It is believed that the rider lost control and hit the central road island with such force that it caused the helmet to come off, reported KhaoSod.
The body has been sent to the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Pathum Thani for a detailed autopsy. Police are contacting the family to arrange for religious rites.
