VietNamNet Bridge – Driving a motorbike through a railway without careful observation, a man was hit by a train and pulled for more than 10 meters.



The accident occurred at 10.11am of June 8 in the central province of Thanh Hoa. The victim is Mr. Phan Ngoc De, 62, in Nga Son district of Thanh Hoa province.

According to police and witnesses, De was on his way from Nga Son to Thanh Hoa city when he drove his motorbike across an intersection between railway and road in Tao Xuyen town, Hoang Hoa district.

De crossed the railway without careful observation, so he did not see the coming train. As a result, the Hanoi-Saigon train directly hit the man. After crashing into the man, the train dragged the man and his motorbikes for over 10m.

The man died immediately while his motorbike was completely crushed.

The railway-road intersection is a ‘black spot’ where many accidents happened.
