Two people were hurt when a van and a car collided early Tuesday morning along Jalandoni Street in Pasay City, James Agustin reported on Unang Balita.

The van fell on its side while its windshield was damaged due to the force of the collision while the car was also badly damaged.

The van driver, Gene Bong Vergara and a companion were hurt.

"Na ano lang po sir sabay po kaming ano tapos nung nakita ko na po siya then papalabas na po kami then tinamaan po 'yung puwetan namin tapos tumaob kami," Vergara related.

The driver of the car, Jebert Paul Vivar, declined to comment on the situation.

Based on the initial results of an investigation conducted by the Pasay police, it was the car that hit the van.

"Ang halos tama ng van nasa gitna na kaya siguro sa lakas ng tindi ng buhos ng ulan nag-zero visibility hindi niya nakita na may tumawid na van. Dire-diretso siya sa pagmamaneho niya kaya nasalpok niya yung puting van kaya ito ang naging dahilan para tumagilig ito," said Pasay traffic Night Shift Supervisor Ambrosio Payumo, Jr.

Payumo advised motorists to be extra careful during the rainy season and to slow down when approaching intersections. — BAP, GMA News
