Separate road accidents reported in Calabria and Trieste
Two distinct traffic accidents occurred in Italy. In Calabria, a collision between a car and a heavy vehicle took place on the Statale 107 Silana Crotonese near San Fili, in the province of Cosenza. The impact caused significant damage to the car, and the 30-year-old driver sustained serious injuries to his head and arm. He was transported to the Annunziata hospital in Cosenza for treatment. The accident caused major traffic disruptions, requiring police to implement alternating one-way traffic.
In the Trieste area, a semi-trailer truck overturned on its side while navigating a curve at the junction between the SP1 and the A4 motorway in Duino Aurisina, near Sistiana. The driver was uninjured and able to exit the vehicle independently. Firefighters from Opicina and Trieste responded to the scene with a heavy recovery vehicle to upright the truck and secure the area. No other vehicles were involved in the incident.
