Overcrowding, lane invasion, poor road conditions and poor lighting. There are several recklessness that come together in the fatal accident that cost the lives of three members of a family on the El Carmen de Bolívar-Zambrano road.
The parents and their little son, 4 years old, are the fatal victims of a crash between a motorcycle and a private car in the early hours of Thursday, September 29. A 2-year-old girl, daughter and sister of the deceased, was seriously injured and is being treated at the Fray Luis Hospital in the municipality of Plato (Magdalena).

While relatives, neighbors and friends prepare for the funeral of Dairo Visbal Contreras, 27 years old; his wife Gloria Lucía Parra Medina, 24; and the boy Dairo David Visbal Parra, the preliminary investigations are advancing and a hypothesis of what happened four kilometers from Zambrano has been revealed.
It seems that the driver of the car once morest which the motorcycle collided would have invaded the opposite lane. In the Chevrolet Spark GT was an engineer.
Witnesses assure that the poor condition of the road and the darkness would have influenced the accident. One of the versions hints that when avoiding a hole, the engineer had to move to the other lane and it was at that moment that he found himself face to face with the motorcycle, where the four members of a family were going.

The first steps also suggest that the motorcycle that Dairo was driving was without lights and that in addition to carrying his three relatives in the vehicle, he was carrying a package. The family had just left their plot when the accident occurred. They were going to El Carmen for a medical check-up appointment for the child, who had recently undergone surgery.
“According to information collected at the scene, a Chevrolet Spark vehicle allegedly invades the opposite lane and collides with a green Suzuki AX motorcycle, where four people were apparently moving,” says a police report that also confirms the capture of the driver of the car.
