On the afternoon of July 20, heavy rain fell in Zhengzhou, and a section of tunnel about 2 kilometers long was filled with water in just a few minutes, and many cars were flooded.

On the afternoon of July 22, the reporter was at the scene of the Beijing-Guangzhou Expressway pumping, and Ms. Yang, who witnessed it, told reporters that after the car she took drove out of the tunnel for thirty or forty meters, she was ready to escape when she saw the water, and when she opened the car door for a moment, the water did not pass the neck, so she climbed along the door to the roof of the car and grabbed the tunnel railing to get out of danger. Recalling the situation at that time, Ms. Yang choked up and sighed: "It is really nine deaths, I hope that all people are safe."

In this regard, Mammoth News reminds the majority of drivers to choose to drive in the tunnel carefully on rainy days. As of press time, the water in the Beijing-Guangzhou Expressway tunnel is still being drained.
