According to reports, the truck, marked no. 2031, was driven by one Muhammad Jahangir and was going to the aircraft to upload the passengers’ luggage for Gilgit flight PK 6601, when it suddenly collided with another PIA coaster, marked no. 1583, driven by one Nasir Shehzad.
Both the vehicles hit each other, causing significant damage to the trucks, but fortunately, both the drivers remained unharmed.
Furthermore, details also state that thankfully, no damage to the aircraft or the luggage occurred. The people in the surroundings were also safe and unharmed.
