Thomas and Federico, in Sardinia it is the time of pain and condolence. There have been six victims since the beginning of the year on the roads of the island
Investigations underway to clarify the causes and dynamics of the fatal accident in via Vesalio in Cagliari, where the Peugeot of the two young people was driving against traffic. The 44-year-old in the SUV was in shock: "My car saved my life"
There have already been six road victims on the island since the beginning of the year . An endless trail of blood, with last night's tragedy in Cagliari which inevitably brings the mind back to last September with the death of four young people in the crash of a car in Viale Marconi .
Before Thomas Frau and Federico Cubeddu , the two 19-year-olds who died yesterday in via Vesalio , it was the turn of a 59-year-old to lose his life last Friday on state road 197 in San Gavino . On 13 January the road victim, just outside Carbonia, was a 38-year-old on board his motorbike which crashed into a car . On January 8, when school resumed after the Christmas and New Year holidays, a 15-year-old was hit and killed by a car while crossing on a pedestrian crossing in via Peretti in Cagliari. And 2024 opened on January 3 with the accident on state road 195 : a 19-year-old from Quartucciu lost his life when his car ended up in the sea after a head-on collision.
Yesterday, moreover, 35-year-old Daniela Allegretti died when she ran off the road in Isili in her car , and the investigations will have to establish whether it was an illness or a tragic accident caused by a sudden obstacle , perhaps by the low sun.
Meanwhile in Quartu there is great pain at the farewell to the last two young people who died too soon . And the investigation , coordinated by prosecutor Giangiacomo Pilia, will now have to clarify what happened and why the car driven by the young people took Via Vesalio against traffic . While the third boy on board the Peugeot, from the bed of the Monserrato Polyclinic where he ended up due to the injuries sustained in the crash, explains that he does not remember "anything, not even if there was an accident", the cars were seized and the driver of the SUV into which the Peugeot crashed, 44-year-old Alessandro Manunza, could be officially registered on the register of suspects for road homicide. Manunza recalled seeing the car hit him at the last moment, and not being able to do anything to avoid it . "I'm alive thanks to my Maserati", the comment still in shock, aware of the fact that if he hadn't been driving such a resistant car he could have died.
