A man in northern Vietnam had his truck seized and was fined VND20 million ($819.25) for obstructing an ambulance en route to hospital for over four kilometers.

 

At 5:30 p.m. Monday, an ambulance of northern Vietnam’s Tuyen Quang Province general hospital was transporting a patient suffering from a ruptured liver and pleural effusion after being rammed by an ox to another hospital in Hanoi.

 

But on the journey, a medic said a truck driver obstructed the ambulance, refusing to let it pass for over four kilometers on National Highway 2C in Son Duong District.
