While traveling on Nguyen Binh Khiem Street (Hai Phong), a billion-dollar car lost control and crashed straight into a royal poinciana tree on the side of the road, causing the front of the car to be crushed and the tree to break in half.

The accident occurred at 2:00 p.m. on April 27 on Nguyen Binh Khiem Street, opposite the gate of a high school. The Luxes car with Thai Binh license plate was traveling from Dinh Vu port to Big C intersection when it lost control and crashed head-on into a royal poinciana tree on the side of the road. |

The strong impact pushed the car backwards, spinning across the road, causing traffic congestion. The driver, a man, was identified by police as having minor injuries. |

Immediately after the crash, the royal poinciana tree, about 15 years old, with a trunk diameter of nearly 40 cm, shook, tilted and broke in half. |

The top of the tree fell onto the sidewalk. |

The base burst open, lifting concrete slabs and pavement tiles. |

The accident caused a slight traffic jam, traffic police and Hai An district police arrived a few minutes later to regulate traffic. |
