In the afternoon of February 10, on the Vinh Hao - Phan Thiet expressway, at km176 passing Luong Son commune, Lam Dong province, a truck fire occurred. The location of the incident is near the National Highway 28B intersection.
At the above time, a truck with license plate 72H-029. xx traveling in the North - South direction suddenly caught fire. Detecting the incident, the driver quickly pulled the car into the emergency stop zone to ensure safety.
Many sacks of goods on the truck bed were pulled down to the road surface to limit property damage. However, the fire then broke out strongly and quickly spread throughout the truck bed.
Some vehicles traveling on the highway stopped to support the driver in initial firefighting, but because the fire spread quickly, controlling it was difficult.
The expressway management unit urgently arrived at the scene to regulate traffic, coordinate to support firefighting and ensure safety for vehicles passing through.
Fire and Rescue Police and fire trucks quickly approached the scene to put out the fire.
Because the burned truck is located in the emergency stop zone, vehicles can still travel through the remaining 2 lanes in the North-South direction.
