According to Mr. Zhang, the driver of the car, at about 1:40 p.m. on December 8, he drove to the Gantang section of the Wuhan Ring Expressway, drove normally in the fast lane, and when he approached a small truck in front of him, an iron bucket suddenly fell from the small truck and hit the right side of the car. But the pickup truck did not slow down and continued to move forward, and the sedan was able to drive normally. Considering that it was inconvenient to park on the highway, Mr. Zhang memorized the license plate of the pickup truck, continued to move forward, and immediately called the police after arriving at the Gantang toll station in front of him.

After receiving the alarm, the police of the Caidian Brigade of the Hubei Expressway Traffic Police carried out an investigation, and immediately contacted Mr. Zhao, the driver of the pickup truck, through the license plate number and dash cam provided by Mr. Zhang. Unexpectedly, when the police identified themselves in **, Mr. Zhao ignored them out of vigilance against wire fraud. The police repeatedly explained and told the relevant details of the pickup truck driving on the highway, and Mr. Zhao realized that he had inadvertently caused an accident.

After Mr. Zhao parked the car, he and Mr. Zhang added WeChat to each other. Through the communication between the two, the police learned that the pickup truck was transporting empty paint buckets, and one paint bucket fell because it was not tied firmly.

Mr. Zhao said that he was willing to take responsibility and compensate Mr. Zhang for his losses, but he had already driven a long way and would not return until a few days.

Witnessed by the police and agreed by both parties, Mr. Zhao transferred 800 yuan to Mr. Zhang as maintenance costs.

High-speed traffic police tips, when the vehicle transports goods, must be tied up firmly, especially on the highway, the speed of the vehicle is fast, the wind is strong, the driver should pay more attention, to enter the service area in time to check whether the goods on the car are loose, so as to avoid accidents.
