“Police say the incident was due to an “incorrect operation” of the vehicle”
SINGLE SOURCE
While the Al Jazeera source explicitly states police attributed the incident to 'incorrect operation', the other two relevant sources for the China incident mention 'incorrect vehicle operation' or 'driver error' generally. However, the specific 'Evidence for claim 1' section provided contains irrelevant search results (Saudi Arabia, Etobicoke, ASEANNOW) that do not support the claim. Only the Al Jazeera snippet from the first evidence block corroborates this specific police quote.

“several people were taken to hospital”
SINGLE SOURCE
The Al Jazeera source confirms several people were taken to the hospital. The 'Evidence for claim 2' section provided contains irrelevant dictionary and mathematical definitions of the word 'multiple' and does not provide additional factual evidence for the event. Only one relevant source confirms the hospitalizations.
