As the previous page comes to an end, we eagerly wait for what's next. And what came next on the Beijing-Harbin expressway in China was nothing short of unexpected and epic. A lorry carrying a load of fireworks collided with a car, causing a chain reaction of events that resulted in a spectacular motorway display.
As the two vehicles collided, the pyrotechnics on the lorry were triggered, setting off a vibrant and rapid explosion of colors in the sky. The date was December 23, and the usually busy expressway was now at a standstill as onlookers watched in awe and panic.
People scrambled for safety as the lorry became engulfed in flames and hundreds of fireworks went off simultaneously. But amidst the chaos, some stood at a safe distance, mesmerized by the unplanned show. Some even took out their phones to record and share the experience on social media. One person even climbed on top of their car's bonnet to get a better view.
Thankfully, there were no casualties reported. The lorry driver managed to escape his vehicle in time and warn others about the potential danger. Witnesses say that he remained calm throughout the ordeal, even lighting a cigarette as he watched the display unfold in the sky.
With a hint of irony, the lorry driver, who has been in the freight transport industry for years, remarked, "I've never had such an extravagant experience in all my years on the road." He went on to add, "Others spend hundreds of thousands on fireworks displays, but with this truckload of fireworks, I set it all off without spending a dime."
While it may have been a "miraculous accident," as the lorry driver put it, the authorities were quick to remind the public to prioritize safety during the festive season. As the New Year approached, officials in China urged people to follow regulations and ensure a safe celebration.
Interestingly, a similar incident occurred in Canada last year when a lorry carrying $100,000 worth of fireworks accidentally collided with a trailer on the Trans-Canada Highway. The minor collision caused a spark that ignited the fireworks, resulting in an hour-long display. It just goes to show that sometimes, even accidents can lead to unexpected and beautiful moments.
