12 injured in bus-truck collision in Hong Kong residential district

Twelve people have been injured after a bus and a truck collided in a Hong Kong residential district.

Police said the double-decker bus crashed head-on with the truck on Lin Tak Road in Lam Tin at 9.27am on Wednesday, adding that drivers of both vehicles were among the injured, all of whom were taken to United Christian Hospital.

According to online photos, the cargo hold of the truck was ripped open after the collision, leaving items scattered on the road.

Major franchised bus firm KMB said that the truck travelling in the opposite direction was suspected to have lost control and hit its bus, which was moving in an adjacent lane.

“KMB wants to remind other drivers to drive carefully on narrow roads, so that accidents can be prevented,” it said.
