On April 2nd, in Wanzhou, Chongqing, a car was traveling at 60 km/h on the road when suddenly a large truck swerved across the opposite lane, broke through the roadside barrier, and plunged off the bridge. The two vehicles narrowly avoided a collision. The driver of the car immediately pulled over and dialed the emergency hotline.

The Wanzhou District Traffic Police Department responded promptly to the incident, arriving at the scene to manage the situation. It was observed that there was water accumulation on the road at the time of the accident. Preliminary investigations suggest that the accident occurred due to the truck skidding after braking. The truck driver has been taken to the hospital but is not in critical condition. The affected road section has been reopened to traffic, while further investigation into the exact cause of the accident is underway.
