Notizie.it editorial team A tragic car accident shook the community of Squillace, in the province of Catanzaro, where a 43-year-old woman lost her life in a violent collision between two cars. The accident occurred on the new stretch of state road 106, a road that, unfortunately, is often the scene of road accidents due to its conformation and heavy traffic.
The dynamics of the accident
According to initial reconstructions, the victim was driving a Fiat “Panda” when, for reasons yet to be clarified, he collided head-on with a Ford “Focus”. Two people were traveling in the latter, both seriously injured and currently hospitalized in the hospital in Catanzaro. The competent authorities are investigating to determine the exact causes of the accident and whether there were any violations of the highway code.
Rescue intervention
Immediately after the accident, the firefighters of the Provincial Command intervened on the scene, working to extract the injured from the twisted metal of the cars. In addition, the Anas staff and the traffic police officers carried out the necessary surveys to reconstruct the dynamics of the incident. The road was temporarily closed to traffic to allow for rescue operations and investigations.
Reflections on road safety
This tragic event brings attention back to the road safety and the importance of respecting traffic regulations. State Road 106, despite being a key connecting road for the region, has several critical points that require safety measures. It is essential that local and national authorities take adequate measures to prevent future accidents, such as installing clearer signs and increasing checks by law enforcement.
