A carrier vehicle full of residual oil crashed into a highway toll station in Zhenjiang City, east China's Jiangsu Province on Thursday morning, pushing against two cars away for about 40 meters but caused no casualty.
According to the traffic police at the accident site, the vehicle rushed all the way down into the station from a bridge and hit the cars, which were paying the highway fee and got severely damaged on their rears.
The vehicle had its front bumper crashed, but there was no leakage of its dangerous chemicals inside.
"The brake was out of control when the accident took place. I didn't let the vehicle idle. I think it was because there was air pressure after I braked the vehicle," said the driver.
The cause of the accident is still under investigation.
