A police officer told GMA News, “Conscious naman yung ating driver ma’am pero nagkaroon lang po siya ng konting injury sa left arm niya. Then dito sa neck.”
Police said the driver’s minor nephew was also inside the car during the incident. Fortunately, the child was not hurt.
Initial investigation showed that the car may have suddenly moved into the truck’s lane without noticing the approaching vehicle.
The dump truck driver also shared his account of the incident during an interview with GMA News.
“Hindi ko nalaman kung saan siya nanggaling eh, na parang paikot ata siya. Pero nasa right of way po kami. Sa linya lang kami,” the truck driver said.
Meanwhile, the injured driver’s sibling revealed that they were traveling in convoy before the accident happened.
“Hindi na namin sila nakita. So kahit papaano hinahanap ko na sila kung nasaan. Pagdating namin dito, traffic na. Pagtingin namin dito nakita ko na sila,” the sibling shared.
The injured driver was rushed to the hospital after the crash. However, he reportedly declined to speak to the media.
Police later confirmed that the dump truck company would cover the driver’s medical treatment as well as the repair of the damaged vehicle.

In a previous report by KAMI, on Christmas day, a family of four was found dead inside their lakeside home in Wakefield, New Hampshire, CBS News Boston reported. According to a report by the Daily Mail UK, the family was victimized by a "silent killer" - carbon monoxide. As it turned out, the propane heating system at the lakefront house malfunctioned, prompting the entire family to be poisoned as they slept that night. Currently, investigators don't know yet as to why it happened; also, there were no carbon monoxide alarms found in the home.
In another viral local report, a businessman kidnapped in Quezon City was found dead in San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan. In an interview with 24-Oras, one of the suspects admitted the victim was strangled and had a cellophane wrapped around his face. Afterwards, the killed businessman was put inside a water drum, and buried in San Jose Del Monte. It's the same kidnap-slay crime committed against Ruby Rose Barrameda in 2007 and as it turned out, the alleged mastermind behind the two crimes was believed to be the same person.
