On 6/6 in Eakar district, a traffic incident occurred on a narrow road. A dashcam-equipped car, following a motorcycle closely, showed no signs of slowing. It continued forward, pulling the motorcycle and its rider underneath before coming to a complete stop. The victim's condition is unknown.
Experts from Car Awards suggest the video clearly indicates driver distraction, as the motorcycle was not in a blind spot. This distraction could stem from health issues or the driver engaging in other activities, such as using a phone or eating.
Therefore, drivers must always focus on the road ahead and observe widely on both sides to assess situations. Just a few seconds of inattention can lead to an accident.
For motorcyclists, when traveling on the road, it is essential not only to look ahead but also to observe behind via rearview mirrors. If a large vehicle is approaching, getting closer without signs of slowing down, it is crucial to find a way to get away. If possible, find a spot with a wide enough shoulder to avoid the vehicle behind, allowing it to pass. If not, increase your speed to create a safe distance.
A truck's dashcam recorded a girl on an electric bike disappearing under the vehicle on 14/4 on National Highway 19 in Quy Nhon.
