This morning, June 18, at Phu Yen General Hospital, sitting curled up on her hospital bed, Ms. Nguyen Thi Sau (62 years old, from Ba Ria - Vung Tau) was still in shock after the accident between two passenger buses on the night of June 17 on National Highway 1 through Phu Yen province that left 11 people injured and dead.
Mrs. Sau shared that she and her son are currently suffering from chest pain and injuries. " I just finished taking care of my son-in-law's funeral in Da Nang, and was on my way back to my hometown in Ba Ria - Vung Tau when the accident happened. When I got on the bus, I chose the bed behind the driver, but the staff asked me to change to the next bed, so I escaped. After the accident, my body was covered with broken glass ," Mrs. Sau said.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Sau and her son are still in shock after the tragic accident between two passenger buses on the night of June 17.
“ I escaped the “death sentence” thanks to the bus company saying they would change the bed for the person who had died. It should have been me who died ,” Mrs. Sau recounted fearfully. Until now, Mrs. Sau is still haunted by the screams for help and the cries of children.
“ At that time, I had just fallen asleep when I heard a loud noise. When I woke up, I saw a chaotic scene, many people were seriously injured. The whole car was in chaos, screaming and rescuing people. The scene happened very quickly. I quickly grabbed my things and got out of the car. I also lost my money, so now I have to call home to borrow money to pay the hospital bill ,” said Mrs. Sau.
While bandaging his head wound, Mr. Tran Quoc Luan (32 years old), Mrs. Sau's son, who was also in the car, said that at the time of the accident, the two cars were traveling at quite a high speed.
“ Everyone on the bus was in chaos, screaming. I was in the middle bed, so when the accident happened, the goods and luggage from the upper floor fell on me, causing me to have a lot of chest pain. The accident happened late at night and it was quiet, so not many people came to help. Those who were lightly injured found an empty path to climb out, while those who were seriously injured were later helped out by the authorities, ” said Mr. Luan.
