Reports from Taiwan indicate a series of traffic accidents involving passenger cars and heavy vehicles. In Hualien County, a collision between two cars on Taiwan Provincial Highway 9 in Fuli Township resulted in the death of a 35-year-old female passenger and five injuries. 

On National Highway 1, two separate multi-vehicle incidents occurred in Kaohsiung. One involved a semi-trailer truck making an improper lane change, which triggered a five-car pileup and minor injuries to three individuals. A second five-car collision occurred near the Kaohsiung High-Tech Zone, causing significant traffic congestion with backups extending five kilometers and temporarily obstructing emergency responders.
