Scafati – More blood on the Strada Statale 268 “del Vesuvio”, sadly known as the “strada della morte”.
This morning, between the Angri Nord and Scafati South, a motorcyclist lost his life in a violent road accident that also involved a car.
According to an initial reconstruction, the causes of which are still being ascertained, the motorcyclist lost control of the motorbike, falling disastrously onto the asphalt. The impact was devastating: when the rescuers arrived, there was nothing more that could be done for the man.
Law enforcement officers and Anas teams promptly arrived at the scene of the tragedy, carrying out routine checks, removing the damaged vehicles and cleaning the road surface. To allow for the operations and ensure safety, the stretch of road was temporarily closed to traffic.
Yet another victim shines a spotlight on the dangers of the SS268, the scene of numerous fatal accidents in recent years.

It is sad to hear of another accident on this road, which seems to be increasingly dangerous. We hope that the authorities will do something to improve safety and avoid tragedies like this.
I don't understand why we don't intervene earlier, there have been too many accidents now and every time it's the same story. People deserve to travel safely without fear of dying.
