Eyewitnesses describe the scene as devastating, with multiple vehicles involved in the collision. A van lost control and crashed into a wall after grazing a truck and a coach. The impact was so severe that the van was propelled onto the pavement, where it came to a halt.

Online photos show the van's front end severely damaged, its windscreen shattered, and airbags deployed. Debris and shards of glass littered the road, making the scene even more hazardous.
The injured parties, including the drivers of the van and the car, as well as two passengers from the car, are currently receiving medical attention. The cause of the accident is still under investigation.
The severity of the accident highlights the importance of road safety measures, particularly in densely populated areas like Hong Kong's Kowloon City.
