Accordingly, the first serious traffic accident occurred at around 11:00 p.m. on December 1, at Km 92 National Highway 12B (Tan Lac welcome gate) in Tan Phong area, Man Duc town, Tan Lac district.

The victims' identities include: Bui Xuan Thuong (2007), Bui Van Anh (2008) and Bui Van Tap (2005); all three reside at: Tam 1 Hamlet, Thanh Hoi Commune, Tan Lac District.
According to the police, the results of the scene investigation and autopsy determined that the initial cause was due to the tractor-trailer not going to the right in the direction of travel (encroaching on the oncoming lane by about 1.3 m), causing the traffic accident.
Preliminary test of driver Pham Tien Hai showed no alcohol concentration and negative for drugs.
The second incident occurred at around 1:30 a.m. on December 2, at Km 110+77 National Highway 6 in Trong Phu hamlet, Phong Phu, Tan Lac.

The accident killed all three people on the motorbike.

According to the Hoa Binh Provincial Police, through the examination of the scene and the traces left at the scene, the authorities initially determined that the passenger bus driver Nguyen Van Dung had recklessly overtaken and driven on the wrong side of the road (going completely into the lane reserved for oncoming vehicles), causing the accident.
