Not long ago, the car flip in Bao Loc also shook netizens. At 17:30 on March 30, at Bao Loc Pass (section of National Highway 20 through Da Huoai district) there was a serious overturning of a bus.

The passenger car driven by Mr. Nguyen Van L. (44 years old, residing in Tan Thien, Dong Xoai, Binh Phuoc) in the direction from Da Lat to Ho Chi Minh City. Ho Chi Minh City collided with the tail of the truck driven by Mr. Nguyen Trung H. (48 years old, residing in An Hiep, Lien Hiep, Duc Trong, Lam Dong) in the same direction ahead.

After the collision, the passenger car rushed through the left side of the road and fell into Bao Loc Pass. As a result of the collision, Ms. Tr. (26 years old, residing in Tan Binh, Dong Xoai, Binh Phuoc) died. Two children had broken arms, one was injured in the back. Both vehicles were damaged after the incident.

The initial cause was determined to be that the bus did not control the speed. According to the account of driver Nguyen Van L., the car lost its brakes before the car overturned. This bus is a contract car belonging to Bach Dang Company (address in Phu Tan, Tan Phu, Dong Xoai, Binh Phuoc), carrying 36 people at the time of the acciden.t. Immediately after the collision, the Lam Dong Provincial Police deployed rescue forces, and at the same time diverted traffic to avoid disrupting the flow of traffic on Bao Loc Pass.

Being vigilant when driving a truck on a pass is a vital issue for drivers and other road users alike. The pass, with its winding terrain, steep slopes, and dangerous turns, always poses a potential risk of collisions, especially overturning trucks. A little carelessness, a small error in calculation or action can lead to serious consequences.

First of all, the terrain of the passes is often very complicated, with many narrow bends and vertical slopes. This requires drivers to have excellent vehicle control skills, while maintaining high concentration at all times. Moreover, weather conditions such as heavy rain, fog or slippery roads add to the level of danger. Therefore, it is extremely important to prepare before driving on the pass. Drivers need to thoroughly check the condition of the vehicle, including the brake system, tires, and engine, to ensure that the vehicle operates stably throughout the journey.

In addition, one of the main causes of overturning on the pass is due to overloading or improper cargo. The volume of cargo that exceeds the regulation or is unevenly distributed imbalances the vehicle, making it more difficult to maintain stability, especially when cornering or braking sharply. Therefore, compliance with load regulations and cargo arrangements is a factor that cannot be ignored.

In addition, speed is also a decisive factor in staying safe on the pass. Driving too fast not only reduces vehicle control, but it also increases the risk of skidding or overturning when cornering. On the contrary, if moving too slowly on some steep slopes, the truck may swerve, causing unfortunate incidents. Therefore, it is very important to adjust the speed reasonably according to each road condition.
