There was an accident where the bus fell over?

[기자]

Yes, around 9:10 am, the bus alighted near the Godeok Interchange on the Dangjin-Yeongdeok expressway in Yesan-gun, Chungcheongnam-do.

It was a bus going to Dangjin, and there were 35 passengers on it.

If you look at the screen at the time of the accident, you can see that it was a very slippery situation because there was snow piled up on the road despite the snow removal.

The bus lost its balance and fell while trying to avoid the car that had previously been involved in the accident.

Fortunately, there were no major injuries, and only four passengers were reported to have received hospital treatment.

The way the accident was handled led to serious congestion on the road as one of the two lanes was controlled.

Earlier, at 8:00 am, an accident followed a snow collision near Anhyeon junction on the 1st ring highway in Siheung-si, Gyeonggi-do.

No one was injured, but a series of collisions occurred at intervals of 200 metres, leading to extreme congestion in the area.

At the moment, the risk of accidents is high as all parts of the country are being turned into icy roads.

Snow removal is done, but the weather is so cold, the roads are frozen, and there are many places with thin ice on roads that are not easy to see, so you need to be careful ok while driving.
