Hunt for BMW GS After 81 Year Old Killed in Hit and Run

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Old folk (and kids, and everyone else) with no choice but to cross national highway like the mess that is hwy 4 with no more protection than their raised hand. Hey, it's Cambodia, but for me that's sadder than one accident.

Not yellow at all... And the color of that bike is stock, so I don't see why it would necessarily be her. Tons of people own BMWs here. The older ones are yellow.

Think you should have a closer look at the damage to her bike, photos of her bike undamaged, and the part left at the scene.

And, to stereotype, old folk can behave like moses on national routes.

But, whatever, the rider should have stopped.

Which part is supposedly from her bike? The wheel hugger?

$1000 to the 81 year old man's family would have taken care of this and she would not have to flee any charges. Running away was a bad move and probably a panic reaction.

It certainly must be difficult reading the forum in braille.

A BMW GS 1200 Adventure sells for 43,000 SGD (32K USD) obviously it is a toy for the Hiso or affluent, from what I have seen in SEA, the more money one has, the less likely one is to take responsibility for causing the death of another.

I hadn't seen any of the pictures of the front of the bike untik posted after my question.
