Cagliari, car goes off the road and knocks down a pole: driver injured (and perhaps drunk)

He lost control of his car, perhaps because he had too much alcohol in his system, and crashed into a pole .

Road accident last night in Cagliari at the roundabout between Viale Campioni d'Italia and Viale San Bartolomeo : fortunately the driver did not suffer serious injuries .

He was rescued by 118. The car suffered significant damage, in addition to the CTM power line pole, which fell and ended up in the middle of the road.

It was necessary to block traffic on the stretch between Amsicora and the roundabout to close it to allow the firefighters to carry out work to recover the pole and then repair and restore the line.

Local Police officers are working to reconstruct what happened and have also taken care of the driver, with tests to evaluate his physical and psychological conditions while he was driving.
