When reaching Km04+750m, road 534B in Hung Cuong hamlet, Ky Son commune, Tan Ky district, Phan Anh Minh drove at a speed of about 50 - 60 km/h.
Because of moving on a noisy road, Phan Anh Minh turned his head to the right, looking back to talk to Mr. Tran Van Hien, leading to a lack of attention and causing the motorbike driven by Minh to collide with the motorbike of Mr. Nguyen Van Binh, born in 1940, residing in Hung Cuong hamlet, Ky Son commune.
