According to the images in the clip, the incident occurred at 12:42 on October 19 at km23 on the Noi Bai - Lao Cai highway (from Noi Bai airport to Lao Cai, in Vinh Phuc province).

At this time, a closed-body truck was traveling when a 16-seat passenger bus approached at high speed, forcing the truck into the emergency lane of the highway.
