Bulldozer falls from truck onto passing Tesla on Hong Kong road

A bulldozer fell off the back of a truck and onto a car carrying two women on a road in northern Hong Kong on Thursday.

The driver and passenger inside the stricken Tesla escaped serious injury.

As the truck approached Tsat Sing Kong on Kam Tin Road, the bulldozer fell from the back of it at about 12.20, according to police.

The red car was travelling in the opposite direction, heading to Yuen Long, and was hit and partly crushed by the falling vehicle.

A force spokesman said it seemed “the truck suddenly broke down and the bulldozer fell down and hit the car in the opposite lane”.
