00:23Good morning. For more than four hours, our motorists have not been able to cross the northbound lane of Kamuning Flyover.
00:29After the landslides that fell from a dump truck earlier this morning spread to the flyover,
00:37the clearing operation was postponed by the authorities earlier.
00:40And because of that incident, more than 12 motorcycle riders were injured.
00:47The Bureau of Fire Protection is aware of the flooding of the lands of Bacat Puti
00:56that spread to the northbound lane of Kamuning Flyover in Quezon City.
01:00The lands that fell from a dump truck earlier this morning.
01:05Because of that, more and more motorcycle riders were hit.
01:09According to the responding MMDA traffic enforcers, more than 12 riders were injured.
01:14They were used by MMDA Rescue.
01:17According to a motorcycle taxi rider, he threw his bag at the passenger.
01:22The injured rider collapsed on the side of the road.
01:25His clothes and motorcycle were covered in white.
01:29It was very long, sir.
01:30When I fell, it was fortunate that I fell on bumpy ground.
01:35I couldn't do it anymore because I was running.
01:37It was at 60 kmph. It was fast because it was wide.
01:40We were in the middle of the road.
01:42Another motorcycle rider was injured in his knee.
01:46His partner was injured in his arm.
01:49When we got on the flyover, we were covered in white.
01:56When we left, we walked on the road.
02:02We walked a long distance.
02:04Before 3 o'clock in the early morning, MMDA temporarily closed the northbound lane of the flyover.
02:10It was not possible for the busway to pass through.
02:13That's why the traffic went to Kubau early.
02:16The truck driver is in the custody of the QCPD Traffic Sector 3 while the investigation is ongoing.
02:22Five of the injured riders also headed there.
02:25According to the truck driver, they came from the area of Panambac in Pasig and they will bring them to Pampanga.
02:30When we were next to the truck, we hugged each other, sir.
02:35The tailgate of the truck was open.
02:39Later, the enforcers came.
02:45I apologize, sir.
02:52Meanwhile, this is the situation here in the northbound lane of Kamuning Flyover.
02:57At 7 o'clock in the morning, it was opened again on the road of the vehicles.
03:02There will be a build-up when it comes down here.
03:04But the traffic is still heavy.
03:06Its tail end reaches the northbound lane of EDSA White Plains.
03:10According to the information we got from MMDA,
03:14it was delayed because of the debris from the fallen areas of Panambac.
03:19Street sweepers need to remove it before the flyover is fully opened.
03:24That's the first news from Quezon City.
