NINETEEN people may face criminal charges for their roles in a highway accident that killed 21 people in central China's Hunan Province last year, a report said Thursday.
The accident, which caused a coach to be burned, injured a further 11 people on Sept. 25, 2015 on a Hunan section of the highway linking Shanghai and Kunming, capital of Yunnan Province.
Wang Yuanjing, driver of a semi-trailer that had major safety hazards, abruptly changed lane and collided with a truck. Wang failed to control the vehicle, crashed through a guardrail and hit a coach from the opposite direction, according to the report issued by the Hunan Administration of Work Safety.
The collision caused a diesel leak that set the semi-trailer and coach on fire, the report said.
In addition to Wang, those who have been investigated by local judicial authorities include managers of a road transportation company that owned the semi-trailer, and officers of local vehicle management stations.
