However, at the time of the incident, the right and tail of the minibus was violently hit, the front of the car swung to the right and the body turned, but its radius was only 15 meters. Therefore, the minibus turned to the left due to centrifugal force and glided at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour for about 12.5. Meter.
