More than 20 garment workers were injured yesterday after the truck in which they were travelling veered off the road to avoid another truck in Preah Sihanouk province’s Prey Nop district, making it the third such crash in as many days.

 

A Ministry of Labour statement released yesterday reported that the incident occurred early yesterday morning and injured 25 workers, three of whom suffered serious injuries. The workers had been taken to the provincial hospital and other clinics, and their medical costs were being paid for by the National Social Security Fund.

 

Y Sokha, deputy police chief for Sihanoukville, said the crash occurred when an oncoming truck’s tyre burst, causing the driver of the truck carrying the workers to veer off the road. “Also, another car crashed into the garment workers’ truck and caused additional injuries to the workers,” he said.

Rather odd calling it a 'garment crash'; would it be a 'trash crash' if they were all garbage collectors?
