Indian man dies after motorbike collides with van on Da Lat pass
Two Indian men riding a motorbike collided with a van on Prenn Pass connecting Da Lat in Lam Dong Province, leaving one of them dead and the other seriously injured.
A 26-year-old Indian man died in a motorbike accident on Da Lat pass on Friday evening. The crash occurred around 6 p.m. when the motorbike collided with a van traveling in the opposite direction near Datanla Waterfall in Xuan Huong Ward. The victim's 24-year-old companion sustained multiple injuries and was airlifted to Lam Dong General Hospital for emergency care.
Police have yet to determine which of the two men was driving the motorbike. Upon arrival at the scene, investigators found the motorbike overturned in the wrong lane, surrounded by scattered debris, while the van had come to a stop in its own lane, a short distance away.
The injured man was airlifted to a hospital in Ho Chi Minh City early Saturday at the request of his family. Authorities are currently investigating the cause of the collision on the 7.27-kilometer Prenn Pass. This winding road, which runs through hills and pine forests, was widened to four lanes in early 2024 to better accommodate traffic between National Highway 20 and downtown Da Lat.
