00:00Only a few lanes have been hit by the C5 Eastwood Northbound following the collision of a truck and van earlier.
00:11Let's check on the situation there live on the first news of James Agustin.
00:15James.
00:17Gun, up to this time, only two cars of the C5 Levis were hit in the northbound lane.
00:25It was caught in an accident earlier and the MMDA will have a hard time removing it this morning from a dump truck and an L300 FB van.
00:35The rescuers helped to get the trapped vehicles out of the L300 van before 5 a.m. earlier this morning.
00:42Initial information from the rescuers, more than 10 vehicles of the L300 van were injured and were taken to the hospital.
00:49The L300 van was severely damaged.
00:53The dump truck also twisted and the cargo was scattered.
00:57According to the dump truck driver, he was able to avoid a motorcycle that suddenly left the intersection.
01:03That's why he was able to hit the van.
01:08I was able to run just fine.
01:10This is the motorcycle.
01:12I don't know if it will go straight or I will turn it here.
01:16Now, I'm pushing it.
01:19Now, when I got here, we don't know.
01:23Maybe he changed his mind.
01:24He said he would turn.
01:25Now, when I got here, of course, when he turned to cross here,
01:29that's what I pushed because the truck won't go straight because it's low-lift.
01:34How did you get here to the northbound lane?
01:36I was trying to avoid the motorcycle because the truck will hit it.
01:42Now, this L300, it's just in time.
01:47We had a hard time in the front because it hit hard.
01:52It hit hard in front of the vehicle, the van.
01:56In the back, there were also fractured parts.
02:01I think there were three fractured parts that got stuck.
02:04So, we just had a hard time to avoid them so that they won't get hurt.
02:10Earlier, the L300 van, the tow truck of the MMDA, tried to hit it three times but it didn't work.
02:22That's why they changed their strategy here.
02:25They are going to remove the damaged parts of the dump truck manually
02:30so that the part of the L300 van will be removed.
02:35In the traffic situation here in the northbound lane of C5,
02:39at this time, the traffic is very heavy approaching here in C5 Libis
02:44because from the four lanes, when it comes to the accident,
02:48only two lanes are used by motorists.
02:52So, to our fellow citizens, if they can avoid this, they should avoid it first
02:55because it will take a long time to remove these two vehicles that were involved in the accident.
03:01That's the first news.
03:02From Quezon City, I am James Agustin for GMA Integrated News.
03:32.
