Yesterday evening, a bunch of bewildered people tipped a Lidar on the road. The incident, filmed and then broadcast on social networks, took place on avenue de Jette in Koekelberg. On the video, we see four men pushing the Lidar several times. Quite quickly, the heavy machine weighing several hundred kilos began to tip over and then fall on the artery, in the middle of the road. The four vandals then ran away.
This incident took place at center meters from the accident that cost the life of Dariana Palcauin 2019, recalls the Heroes for Zero collective on its Facebook page. “Given the excess speed of the car, the young woman has no chance of survival, she succumbs to her injuries. The Region places a speed radar there, a few small adjustments are made to give the impression of a more secure pedestrian crossing. In 2022, a group vandalizes the speed camera”deplore the members of this group, an ardent defender of soft mobility for whom “there is only one answer to this avowed desire to put one’s asocial pleasures before life: buy more speed cameras. We must stop the violence in our streets”.
Here is the list of Lidars in place until Thursday.
