A British man from Milton Keynes has died following a motorbike crash in Thailand, local authorities have confirmed.

The accident occurred on a popular island destination, where emergency services responded swiftly after reports of a single-vehicle collision.

According to Thai police, the motorbike is believed to have lost control before crashing.

Paramedics arrived at the scene and transported the injured rider to a nearby hospital, but he later succumbed to his injuries.

Officials said an investigation is under way to establish the precise circumstances surrounding the incident.

The UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office confirmed that it is providing support to the family of the deceased and is in contact with Thai authorities.

No other individuals were reported to have been injured in the crash.

Road safety remains a significant concern in Thailand, particularly on tourist islands where motorbike rentals are common among visitors.

Local authorities have repeatedly urged riders to wear protective helmets and exercise caution, especially on unfamiliar roads.

Thai police said they are reviewing CCTV footage and conducting routine forensic examinations as part of standard procedure.

The death has prompted renewed reminders from both Thai and British officials about the importance of travel insurance coverage and adherence to local traffic laws while abroad.
