Concrete mixer accident/ Road safety expert analyzes the dynamics of the event

Road safety expert, Gëzim Hoxha, commented on the dynamics of the serious accident that occurred today in the TEG area, where a concrete mixer fell from a height and ended up under the bridge, resulting in two fatalities and injuries.

In a television appearance, Hoxha stated that the technical error may have been a maneuver done incorrectly for a second, which also led to the vehicle crashing.

In the expert's view, in addition to losing attention, drivers should reduce speed in roundabout areas because it is assumed to be an intersection.

"There is one thing here that the mechanism of the event itself is explained by the fact that here we have the collision of two vehicles. So, at the moment of the collision of two vehicles, the driver of the vehicle loses balance.

So maybe the driver of the concrete mixer wanted to swerve, he wanted to swerve the accident, but we have to keep in mind that the speed at which it is moving, if we take the speed as 40 km/h, at 40 km, it travels 11.11 meters in 1 second.

So, 1 second if he doesn't manage the vehicle correctly or well, then he falls off the bridge. So that's the whole story. So, a poorly done maneuver for 1 second, he falls, he fell off the bridge.

"This is also the reason why I think that in the maneuver to divert the accident, to avoid the accident, there was a loss of attention, I don't know for what reasons, that's all. In a roundabout, speed must be reduced because a roundabout presupposes that it is a crossroads," said Hoxha./CNA
