The other two people died in a collision between a truck and two cars on the N3 road near Villiers.

“We have attended 244 accidents from December where unfortunately 51 people lost their lives in those accidents. We had a number of pedestrian accidents, 76 pedestrian accidents. We also had 78 head-on collisions.”“What we urge the motorists is that there is a trend in most of the accidents that happened between 1am and 5 am so we, therefore, ask them if they plan their trips, they should do that in a way that they don’t drive throughout the night and take frequent rest.
