TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – The driver of a Lamborghini who crashed into a truck inside a tunnel, leading to the death of two people, visited the memorial service for one of the victims Saturday to express his regret.
In the early morning of July 7, Yu Han-ning (游瀚甯), 24, drove a rented white Lamborghini into a tunnel in Taipei City at high speed. He lost control over the vehicle, which first slammed into a wall and then into two stationary trucks used by three workers to replace lights inside the tunnel.
As a result, both his passenger, a 27-year-old woman surnamed Liu (劉), and one of the workers, Chang Sung-hsiang (張松祥), 49, died on site, reports said.
Chang’s family held his memorial service on Saturday afternoon, and Yu appeared in a wheelchair, accompanied by both his parents, and stayed for about an hour before apologizing to the family, the Central News Agency reported. [FULL STORY]
