Pattaya Police were on scene to sort out the aftermath of a road accident on South Pattaya Road at the crossroads with Pattaya third road. The road was slippy due to a recent rain shower and there had been a collision between a Toyota Fortuner and a Honda Wave motorcycle. The Toyota had come out the winner and the Honda bike had come in a close second.
The loser was definitely the motorcycle rider Khun Ekasit aged 23 who had sustained multiple abrasions and was in a lot of pain from an ankle injury.
Medics from The Sawang Boriboon Rescue Foundation had started to give first aid when the cavalry arrived on scene - Khun Ekasit's mother. She called an ambulance and her son was soon whisked away to Pattaya Memorial Hospital for emergency treatment.
Witnesses told the police that the Toyota Fortuner had pulled out unexpectedly and due to the slippery conditions the oncoming motorcycle had been unable to avoid a collision.
