Mr. Nguyen Tu Hoi (Mrs. Nga's husband) expressed his indignation and said that by the morning of October 10, 2 days after the accident, Dong Bac Company had not yet contacted the victim's family or inquired about the victim's health, which was irresponsible.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Anh (35 years old, resident of Hamlet 6, Thanh Van Commune, Thanh Chuong) was a passenger on bus 37B-00712 who was also injured. She was diagnosed with subconjunctival hemorrhage in her left eye, multiple injuries, and was being monitored for traumatic brain injury.

According to Ms. Anh, no one wants an accident to happen because in addition to economic and business losses, there are also losses to health and life. However, when it happens, Dong Bac Company must show responsibility to the victims and those who use their services.
