British and Russian Motorcyclists Collide in Pattaya

Pattaya —

British and Russian tourists accidentally crashed their motorbikes into each other on Soi Khao Phra Tamnak 5 in Pattaya on Thursday, January 11th.

The Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Foundation’s rescue team responded to the accident at an unspecified time last night.

Upon arrival at the accident site, they found a red Honda PCX motorcycle with significant damage lying overturned on the side of the road. The rider, Mr. Thomas A., a British national, was semi-conscious and had sustained moderate injuries. Another injured individual, Ms. Pornnapa S., a 20-year-old Thai passenger, was lying nearby with facial and bodily injuries. Both were immediately administered first aid by the rescue teams and medical staff from Pattaya Hospital before being transported to the hospital.

The second motorcycle involved, a black Honda Forza, also sustained damage to the front. Its rider, Mr. Dmitrii Bordiug, a Russian national, suffered only minor injuries, declining medical assistance, and remained at the scene waiting for authorities. According to Mr. Bordiug’s translated account, he was traveling straight when the other motorcycle rider abruptly turned in front of him, allegedly causing the collision.

The police officers from Pattaya Police Station documented the scene and arranged for a CCTV footage review to determine the exact cause of the accident. They would also summon the British national to hear his side of the story after he recovered from his injuries.
