“He arrived at full speed behind us and drove like a madman, explain the witnesses of the accident, who were very afraid. He managed to avoid us, but lost control and broke the bike.
The witnesses immediately went towards the victims: “The car spun around, hit a low wall and ended up in a ditch 200 m away! To our amazement, the man in his thirties was able to get out of the car on his own. He wasn’t very clear, he mumbled that he was coming back from a tournament. He wondered what was going on!”
Serious leg injuries
As for the unfortunate bikers, sexagenarians from Warneton, their situation is more worrying. Both members of the “Kerk-Hof” Stone Memory association in Bailleul, Fabienne and Andrew were returning from the “spring of the cemeteries” day. The gentleman, who was driving the Kawasaki brand machine, was seriously injured in the legs. The emergency services stabilized him before transferring him to Ypres hospital. Sunday, at the end of the day, we learned that his condition was improving but that he would have to undergo several operations.
His passenger was also transferred to Ypres. Her life is not in danger, but she suffers from numerous bruises. The driver of the Audi required the presence of a third ambulance.
This axis of great passage was blocked for two hours before being put in alternating circulation until late at night. Firefighters cleared the road.
