Lin, who managed to escape the collision with only minor injuries, reportedly told police that he had been drinking the night before and that he had gotten up early on Monday to try to have breakfast. Despite the red and white barrier being dropped to signal that a train had been going through, the driver admitted to investigators that he had not noticed the train, which had been carrying 370 passengers, close to the town of Jiamin.
