Chiang Mai teenager survives big bike collision but loses leg – VIDEO

A 13 year old Chiang Mai teenager is lucky to escape with his life after a high-speed crash in front of the Sri Arun Market in the San Kampaeng district of Chiang Mai.

The person posting video of the incident estimated he was traveling at 150 kph when he hit another motorbike, before sliding into a car at high speed. He recorded the boy flashing past his car’s dash cam just moments before he hit another motorbike. Two other people were injured in the incident.

The teenager was riding a 1000cc Kawasaki big bike. He survived the crash but lost a leg in the incident and was rushed to hospital.

His sister went online to apologise to the other motorists and emergency responders for wasting their time attending to her brother. She said their family had sent him to get big bike training although he was too young to have a motorbike licence. He was active in local off-road racing.

The Thailand BigBike Society has blamed his family for allowing the teenager to ride the bigbike in the first place.

In Thailand you must be over 15 year of age to have a motorbike license. People must be over 18 to obtain a driving licence for a motorcycle with an engine over 110cc.
