The incident occurred on a quiet village road. A car entered the middle of an intersection just as a tanker truck approached rapidly from a perpendicular direction. Unable to brake in time, the tanker truck collided with the car's side, pushing it for tens of meters before both vehicles fell into a ditch. The extent of casualties and property damage remains unknown.
Drivers should reduce speed when approaching intersections and road openings, maintaining a safe distance to observe and anticipate unexpected situations. Vehicles coming from smaller roads must yield to traffic on main roads, especially when encountering large vehicles like trucks and tanker trucks, which have numerous blind spots and greater difficulty performing sudden stops.
