A minibus driver has been hospitalised after her vehicle collided with a medium goods truck in Hong Kong, causing injuries to 18 others.
Police said the accident occurred at around 9.22am on Monday, when a green minibus and a medium goods truck collided on San Tin Highway on the Yuen Long-bound side of the road near Fairview Park.
According to police, a total of nine men and 10 women were injured in the crash. The accident prompted authorities to close two lanes of the road, leading to severe traffic congestion.
“Two men from the truck were injured, while the remaining injured were the driver and passengers from the minibus,” a police spokeswoman said, adding that the minibus driver was briefly trapped inside the wreckage before being rescued.
