The only survivor of the brutal head-on collision between a truck and a car on Route 151, near Catriel, remains in serious condition. His partner, a 63-year-old woman, died shortly following being taken to the local hospital.
Health sources revealed on Friday night RÍO NEGRO Diary that the man of 72 suffered “trauma of the chest and abdomen” and that he had been referred to Cipolletti. The survivor’s condition is severe, which is why the transfer to Buenos Aires, where the couple is from and where the man had served in a federal security force, was evaluated in the early hours of Saturday.
The truck driver, meanwhile, was linked to an investigation since the expertise coincided with what witnesses and he himself declared moments following the crash occurred, this Friday around 3:00 p.m. The truck crossed lanes and the Citröen might not avoid the fatal impact.
The driver of the transport vehicle had told local media that they arrived at the point of the accident that “the wells took the steering wheel out of my hands and the truck left me.” This was harshly denied by other families who were traveling with the victims in other vehicles and saw the tragic sequence. «You can’t believe how the truck crossed. There are no excuses. A truck driver cannot say what he said,” said one of the couple’s friends who were part of the trip to the Neuquén mountain range.
The information collected complicates things for the truck driver in that although Route 151 is in terrible conditions, coincidentally that section in the sector known as “El Ceferino” does not have the number of wells that can be seen in other sections of the road.
The truck, a Mercedes Benz belonging to a logistics company, was heading from Añelo (Neuquén) to General Acha (La Pampa).
