At the time of the incident, the traffic flow was large, and the Ji D car followed closely with the Yu E car, and suddenly the driver of the rear car Cui's mobile phone WeChat "ding" sounded, and when he looked down at the mobile phone, he was distracted and drove into the car in front. Cui said regretfully: "At that time, there was a lot of traffic, I was a little anxious to rush home, and I was afraid that other vehicles would change lanes and cut in line, so I wanted to follow the car in front of me closer.
