After the accident, the relevant departments quickly rushed to the scene to carry out rescue. Firefighters rushed into the flames and eventually extinguished the fire. However, due to the intensity of the fire, seven people have tragically lost their lives. At present, the cause of the accident is under further investigation.

This can reduce the threat of large trucks to small cars while driving, thereby reducing the incidence of similar accidents.

In fact, the safety of large trucks has always been a concern. Due to its large body and heavy loads, large trucks often have greater safety hazards during driving. Especially on highways, it is easy to cause rear-end collisions when large trucks and cars are mixed. As a result, some places have begun to try to build separate lanes for large vehicles to ensure road safety.
The accident also reminds us that safety awareness is indispensable. No matter what kind of vehicle we drive, we should always be vigilant and follow the traffic rules to ensure the safety of ourselves and others. At the same time, all sectors of society should also strengthen the supervision and management of road traffic safety, improve the level of road safety, and reduce the occurrence of similar tragedies.
