This article has been edited multiple times with a lack of sources. In fact the one source (China: Bus fire in Henan kills dozens) describes a buss fire containing only "The fire happened at 0400 local time (1000 GMT), on a section of the highway linking the capital, Beijing, to the southern city of Zhuhai.". This is less than passing mention as the actual highway is not mentioned. The article links to the 2011 Xinyang bus fire and maybe some of the sources there can be used here.

Even on articles that has presumed notability it is still required to verify this with sources. Vague or trivial mention in sources does not do this and might subject the article to be listed at AFD. Otr500 (talk) 11:32, 4 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Note: There are sources on the subject and it seems a section of the highway, apparently where the above mentioned buss crash happened, is called the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway. There may be encyclopedic information that there are sections with 50 lanes, possibly considered "one of the most congested roads on Earth", and referenced with the nickname "Vehicle Killer". -- Otr500 (talk) 11:48, 4 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
