Vicente Segundo helped children out of buses after a multiple-vehicle crash on the highway linking Querétaro with Mexico City. In his roadside account, he describes a truck moving out of alignment, while making clear he could not tell whether excessive braking played a part.

Mexican news broadcaster NMás reports that three tour buses carrying preschool children and adults from Atitalaquia toward Chapultepec in Mexico City were involved in the collision with a heavy truck. Reporter Víctor Gálvez places the crash at kilometer 49, near Coyotepec in the State of Mexico, on the carriageway heading toward the capital.

Gálvez says paramedics from several institutions assessed at least 30 people and that those assessed were taken to nearby hospitals for medical evaluation. Emergency workers, firefighters and police can be seen behind him as the response continues.

The reporter says the truck lost control, but the segment does not establish the cause of the collision. Segundo's account offers a witness's impression of the vehicle's movement, rather than a finding about responsibility.

Investigators from the State of Mexico prosecutor's office were carrying out inquiries while cranes worked to remove the vehicles. A fuel spill and cleanup operations kept the highway closed at the time of the report. Gálvez describes heavy congestion, with people leaving vehicles and walking in an effort to reach their destinations.
