Passenger bus recklessly overtaking causes accident

(Baonghean) -At around 7:00 p.m. on August 8, on National Highway 1A in Quynh Giang and Quynh Luu communes (Nghe An), a traffic accident occurred, causing both a passenger bus and a truck to have their front ends crushed, causing local traffic congestion.

The 24-seat passenger bus with license plate 37H 9509 of the "Quyet Can" bus company residing in Quynh Phuong commune, Quynh Luu (Nghe An) was traveling in the direction of Vinh - Hanoi. At km 403 + 200, the driver accelerated to try to pass the bus with license plate 37V - 2904, but just as it reached the same level as the bus, it crashed straight into the truck with license plate 37V - 0011 running in the opposite direction. As a result, both vehicles were crushed in the front. At that time, there were about a dozen people on the passenger bus, some of whom were slightly injured and started breaking the emergency window.

It is worth mentioning that the 24-seat passenger bus of the "Quyet Can" company runs daily on the Quynh Phuong - Vinh route, but many times it recklessly overtakes and causes accidents. Although this accident did not cause any deaths, it caused a partial traffic jam on the route because the passengers jumped off in panic. Meanwhile, the bus owner did not try to deal with the consequences but only worried about covering up the license plate to hide his whereabouts.

Immediately after the accident, Quynh Luu district police were present in time to direct traffic and deal with the consequences.
