The accident occurred on a serpentine road near Kultuk village on M-55 highway in Irkutsk Oblast. MAZ road tractor with a trailer flipped over and as a result 20 tons of watermelons spilled into Lake Baikal. Most likely, the accident was caused by brake failure of the loaded car, which could not enter the sharp turn and rolled over. The injured driver was hospitalized.
