Lam Dong - Sand overflowed onto DT715 road - the route connecting National Highway 1 to Mui Ne, causing a tractor-trailer to sink and many motorbikes to slide and fall.

By the morning of November 2, vehicles had finished scraping the red sand layer that had spilled onto DT 715 road.

Previously, on the afternoon of November 1, heavy rain caused red sand from the hillside to overflow onto DT715 road at km6, through village 7, Ham Thuan commune (Lam Dong province).

This is a vital route connecting National Highway 1 with Mui Ne and Bau Trang, so there is a lot of traffic.

Recorded at the scene, the red sand layer overflowed from the hill and covered the road surface, stretching for tens of meters. Due to the heavy sand content, traffic through the area was interrupted.

Immediately afterwards, a local construction unit mobilized excavators and dump trucks to the scene to scrap and scoop the sand onto the truck to transport. Dump trucks also help pull the tractor-trailer out of the sunken location.

This area has terrain with a deep ravine on one side and sand hills on the other. When it rains heavily, sand from the hillside overflows onto the road, causing traffic jams.
