Please pay attention to protecting your eyes! Yesterday (8th), a Chinese man in Milan accidentally encountered a car accident while riding a bicycle, and ultimately died due to his severe injury and ineffective rescue efforts.
According to Tg24.
Sky in Italy, at around 10:40 am yesterday, a 55 year old Chinese man riding a bicycle in Milan collided with a heavy truck at the intersection of ViaComasina Street and ViaNovate Street.
At the time of the incident, both bicycles and trucks traveled along ViaComasina Street towards the center of Milan.
According to a preliminary investigation by the police, the Chinese man was either not driving in the bicycle lane at the time.
When the truck turned right at the intersection, he hung up his bicycle and dragged it for about 300 meters.
The Chinese man who was injured in Ansa Society was subsequently sent to the hospital with a red emergency code, but ultimately died due to the severity of the injury.
After testing, the truck driver did not drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
The case is currently under further investigation.
United Times editor’s note: Although neither Italian media nor translated Chinese media have indicated the cause of the accident, based on the editor’s over ten years of driving experience and news content, it can be inferred that Chinese cyclists must be in a blind spot on the right side of the truck when riding bicycles.
The specific situation is roughly shown in the two figures above.
This also reminds overseas Chinese and Chinese driver friends that trucks, buses, and other vehicles have large blind spots, especially in the right turning area of large vehicles.
In addition to the blind spots that prevent drivers from seeing the small car on the right side, there is also a “dead zone” (pink area in the picture) during the turning process of large vehicles due to “inner wheel difference”.
Small car drivers in this area often do not realize that collisions will occur, which is highly likely to cause accidents.
