Yet another accident in the "cursed" intersection regulated by traffic lights, out of use for too long, at the entrance to the city of Porto Torres.

The clash, due to a probable lack of precedence, took place between via Sassari and via dell'Erica, the road that leads to the Serra Li Pozzi district. The toll is for one wounded.

The first vehicle, a Renault Twingo, with an elderly man from Porto Torres on board, while leaving via dell'Erica to continue towards the cemetery of Ponte Pizzinu, collided with a BMW 218 that proceeded from Sassari towards the urban center of Porto Torres. The violent impact made the Twingo carambulate on the sidewalk. The elderly inside after the first aid was transported by ambulance to the civil hospital of Sassari. Both cars damaged.

The firefighters intervened on the spot to make the road and vehicles safe. Also present was an ambulance from 118 and the local police station who carried out the surveys for the reconstruction of the dynamics.

Protest of passers-by who witnessed yet another accident in a high traffic density intersection, where there are no light signals and the traffic light system is not working. “The do-it-yourself rule applies - motorists protest - there is nothing that regulates traffic and this represents a serious problem and a risk for the people and cars passing through it”.

Work is underway for the construction of the roundabout, about 500 thousand euros for a structure necessary to guarantee road safety. In the meantime, however, the importance of an urgent solution to avoid the recurrence of accidents is highlighted.
