We will do our best to sort out what happened with the accident. We plan to discuss any changes to the broadcast schedule with the broadcasting company,” it said.
What Happened To Bus, Truck?
Initial reports assumed that the dump truck left the gas station after refueling. It immediately tried entering the third lane out of four lanes on the highway and passing through the first and second lanes.
The bus, which was on the third lane, was cut from the line, which caused the collision to happen.
Joseon Psychiatrist Yoo Se Poong’s team is yet to give an update about the other victims.
