00:00The driver of an 18-wheeler truck was injured on MacArthur Highway in Valenzuela City.
00:07Vel Custodio is live in the report, Vel.
00:12At the moment, the tractor head is being replaced by a 10-hour-long truck.
00:17It just hit the road after it hit the side of MacArthur Highway.
00:22While it was turning, it hit Governor Santiago Road here in Valenzuela City.
00:30The impact of an 18-wheeler truck hit the road last night at 9 p.m.
00:35It hit the side of the road that is not below 50 H-beam
00:39that was supposed to be delivered from Manila to Quezon City.
00:43The truck was able to be repaired immediately,
00:45but when it reached the light, no one was able to tow it so that it wouldn't be in the way of the road.
00:50While the 18-wheeler driver was about to turn,
00:54the part of the truck hit the ground.
00:57I was able to tow it to the stoplight.
01:00I was able to tow it slowly.
01:04Before I was able to tow it,
01:07I think all the weight went to the other side.
01:11If only the rope could be pulled,
01:14the truck wouldn't have been broken.
01:19If only the rope could be pulled.
01:22According to him,
01:23he was only able to drive slowly because aside from turning the road,
01:27the road was also wet because of the rain.
01:29The driver was also receiving medical treatment.
01:32The driver and the driver's company have not yet issued a statement.
01:36The Valenzuela City Police driver is still in custody
01:39for an investigation and to find out the alleged complaint that could be filed against him.
01:45According to the towing unit,
01:47if this truck leaves the road,
01:51it will be taken to the impounding area for further investigation.
01:57At the moment, there is traffic on MacArthur Highway
02:01while the truck is being towed.
02:04Back to you, Dayan.
