Two people died in the tragic accident that occurred yesterday morning on the Campobasso Eastern Ring Road . Shortly after 11:30 a.m., a car and a van collided head-on about 300 meters from the tunnel exit, near a car scrapyard. The impact was devastating.
The driver of the car was a 73-year-old woman from the province of Avellino, who died instantly from the very serious injuries she sustained. The driver of the van, a man in his 60s , resident in San Martino in Pensilis (CB) , was rescued by 118 and rushed to Cardarelli Hospital , where he died shortly after arriving with a critical condition.
Municipal police, firefighters, emergency medical services, and Anas technicians responded to the scene . The road was closed for a long time to allow for surveys and road surface cleanup. The cause of the crash, which occurred in a matter of seconds and left the local community shocked, is still unclear.
This news is very sad and makes you reflect on how important road safety is. It's terrible that two people died in an accident. I hope the explanation for this can be clarified. Unfortunately, accidents like this can happen to anyone.
