According to Wichan, he was driving from Khlong Prem and was about to turn into a convenience store when the motorcycle, speeding from Wat Prem Prachakorn, collided forcefully with the back side of his van and was flung onto the road.

Sureeporn stated she was driving behind the van, on her way to take her uncle to Pathumvej Hospital, when the motorcycle collided with the van and its rider was thrown onto the road. This sudden event left her unable to brake in time, leading to a severe collision with the rider.

Friends of the deceased mentioned he worked at a warehouse and was on his way to drop off a junior colleague at a location behind a nearby village. They confirmed the motorcyclist was riding at high speed.

Inspector Parada, after examining the scene, recorded images for evidence and reviewed nearby CCTV footage. The footage showed the motorcycle crashing into the van, causing sparks and a loud noise, reported KhaoSod.

Both the van and car drivers were invited for further questioning at Suan Phrik Thai Police Station. Meanwhile, the Ruamkatanyu Foundation was tasked with transporting the deceased to the Ministry of Justice’s Forensic Science Institute for further examination.
