The 1-ton truck loses its balance, goes a few meters further, and comes to a stop.
[Hyun Byung-cheol/witness: I rushed out because there was a bang (sound), and when I came out, the car accident was already over, and the driver of the Avante was outside, and the porter side was barely able to speak….]
It was an accident at Gwangter intersection in Heungup-myeon, Wonju around 6:40 am today.
The front of the passenger car was completely crushed and the accident site is littered with vehicle debris.
