A British tourist has died and a second is seriously injured after their motorcycle crashed into the back of a rubbish truck on a Thai island.
James Stephenson, 36, and a friend, Pierre, 30 were believed to have been drinking at a local bar on Koh Samui, in the Gulf of Thailand, before trying to ride back to their hotel in the early hours of Thursday morning.
They were riding a white Honda scooter when they ploughed into the back of the bright yellow garbage truck while trying to overtake the vehicle on a bendy dark narrow road at around 1am local time.
