Electric motorbike accident

A 15-year-old female student died on Saturday morning when driving her new electric motorbike on Giai Phong Street in Hanoi.

Witnesses reportedly said she suddenly fell off her motorbike because she was not used to riding it. She was then run over by a passenger coach that was travelling in the same direction.

It is reported that her parents just bought her the motorbike as she was about to enroll in high school.
