A multiple-vehicle traffic accident around “Temenja Yazh,” on A1 St, formerly Debre Zeit St, damages railway infrastructure alongside two cars and two dump trucks. Officially named the China National Heavy Duty Truck Group Co., Ltd. (CNHTC), the ubiquitous red trucks are commonly known as Sinotruk. Headquartered in Shandong province, the major Chinese state-owned truck manufacturer produced its first heavy-duty truck in 1960. While Sinotruk trucks are widely used in Ethiopia and generally considered reliable, there have been concerns raised about their safety record, particularly regarding brake systems with some studies suggesting that brake failures have contributed to accidents involving Sinotruk trucks, though driver behavior and road conditions also contribute.
