Caserta– More blood on the streets of Campania. During the night a accident A road accident claimed the life of a 16-year-old boy, a resident of Caiazzo, who was traveling in a Fiat Punto with his older brother and a friend. The tragedy occurred along provincial road 330, the arterial road that connects Caiazzo to Alvignano, a stretch of asphalt that has been the scene of fatal accidents several times in the past.
According to the Carabinieri's reconstruction, the 19-year-old driver lost control of the car on a curve. The vehicle went off the road and crashed into a wall. The violent, devastating impact left the front-seat passenger with no chance of survival: he died instantly. His brother and his 16-year-old friend in the back seat were seriously injured and are now hospitalized.
The exact circumstances are still unclear, but the most likely cause of the crash is excessive speed on a particularly treacherous stretch of road. A fatal mistake that, in a matter of seconds, turned a youthful night out into an irreversible tragedy.
The grief immediately spread throughout the community of Caiazzo, where the young man attended school and where the family is well-known.

The incident refocuses attention on the real road safety emergency in Campania. According to the latest data, the region remains among the most affected by fatal accidents, with a worrying frequency especially among young people. Dangerous curves, poorly lit provincial roads, risky driving habits, and insufficient enforcement combine to create a mix that claims dozens of lives every year.
The wall against which the Punto stopped has now become the symbol of a tragedy that repeats itself with shocking regularity: families destroyed, communities in mourning, statistics that tell the story of the "silent massacre" of our streets.
A wake-up call that, once again, demands answers in terms of prevention, driving education, and road safety. Because behind every number is a name, a face, a life that will never return.
