"This driver was prosecuted for violating road traffic safety regulations causing serious consequences," said the leader of the Office of the Investigation Police Agency, Nghe An Provincial Police.

As Dan Tri reported, at 6:55 a.m. on March 6, driver Nguyen Duy Quan was driving a truck carrying construction materials. While driving the truck through Hamlet 9B, driver Quan discovered a truck going in the opposite direction and a motorbike carrying 4 people going in the same direction.

Because he was focused on avoiding the oncoming truck, driver Quan did not pay attention and caused an accident with a motorbike carrying 4 people.
