The video circulating online shows the tunnel packed with cars. Many people abandoned their vehicles and fled toward the exit. People were asking each other what had happened.
A person who left the scene earlier described that suddenly, many cars in the tunnel stopped. He heard horns honking, and about 15 meters ahead of him, a large truck caught fire, sending thick smoke into the air. He didn’t think twice and floored the gas pedal, driving through the thick smoke. After about 800 meters, he made it out of the tunnel, and then there was a huge explosion behind him. Luckily, he drove fast, or he would have been trapped inside.
One person online said, “It’s terrifying.” “What caused that huge sound?” “If it wasn’t an explosion, what was it?” “A car exploded in the Gujia Mountain Tunnel. Thank God, people got out. The cars are still in the tunnel, hope they’re okay.”
