The truck then careened onto National Route 20, where it hit a medium-voltage power pole by the roadside. The impact caused the power pole to break and fall, damaged a street light, and severed telecommunication cables. This led to a power outage affecting parts of B'Lao ward and ward 1 Bao Loc.
Fortunately, there were no passersby in the area at the time of the incident, which prevented any injuries or fatalities.
