00:05Live from Manila, we have first news, James Agustin. James.
00:15Good morning. Until this time, the two trailer trucks involved in the accident were still on the road.
00:20They were here in the northbound lane of the Delpan Bridge in Tondo, Manila.
00:24According to the MMDA respondents here, the accident happened at 11 p.m.
00:30and the two lanes were still on the road.
00:32That's why it took more than 8 hours for other motorists not to cross the road,
00:36except for a few motorcycles.
00:38This morning, even the motorcycles were not allowed to pass.
00:41Because of the accident, the vehicles were lined up and did not proceed to the service road northbound.
00:46According to the driver of the 18-wheeler with a loaded steel,
00:49the trailer truck could not handle the heavy load.
00:52The road was still wet because of the rain.
00:54Why did the 14-wheeler with a loaded resin get stuck?
00:57The driver said that the 18-wheeler was in the front and it suddenly backed up.
01:02The result is that the container vans of the two trucks collided.
01:06Meanwhile, as you can see here, these are the two trucks involved in the accident.
01:12According to the MMDA respondents, the tow truck and boom truck will be used
01:17to remove the two trucks involved in the accident.
01:20However, it is not yet certain because one of those trucks has a loaded steel.
01:25The result of the accident that started last night
01:28is the number of vehicles on the service road.
01:31We will show you.
01:32This is the northbound lane of the service road that leads to Mel Lopez Boulevard.
01:36According to the information we got from the MMDA,
01:39the tail end of the traffic is already reaching the area of Rojas Boulevard.
01:44So for those of us who are driving on the northbound lane
01:48and you are going to the area of Mel Lopez Boulevard,
01:51please avoid it because of the accident that happened here at Del Pan Bridge.
01:56That's all for now.
