While traveling on Nguyen Chanh street, the section passing through B10A Nam Trung Yen apartment building, a white Toyota car traveling in the direction of Nguyen Chanh - Hoang Minh Giam suddenly crashed into a car traveling in the same direction, then rushed into the opposite lane, hitting the rear of his car and then continuing to crash into many other vehicles.
The situation happened too quickly, I didn't have time to handle it" - he said.
