Foreign Motorbike Driver dies following accident at unfinished stretch of road in Jomtien | Pattaya One News: "It was only a matter of time until the long-running road-works on the Thappraya Road leading to Jomtien Beach would claim a life. In the early hours of Tuesday Morning, Police and Rescue Services were called to the road following a single vehicle road accident. Lying on the partially completed road was Mr. Dergey Plekhanov, thought to be from Russia. He had been thrown from his motorbike after he had hit a road-sign which ironically urged drivers to exercise caution due to the road modification work. The victim, who was not wearing a safety helmet is believed to have driven down a part of the road that was closed to traffic. He sustained a major head trauma at the scene and despite efforts by medical staff to revive the man, he was pronounced dead-on-arrival at hospital."
