As was reported that there was an accident at a corner of the Roman Street in this morning. A car ran into a truck and fortunately, nobody got injured. Who will be responsible for an accident is still under investigation. What the police should do now is that they must find out what led the accident. They said it was difficult of them to judge because how the accident happened was not clear. Perhaps the reason was that the driver was too tiring to stop the car in time. The driver didn't admit the fact that he is driving too fast at the turning. The police doubted that what he said was true and decided to make a farther investigation.
