Luigi Viscovo road crash investigation

Overview

On 26 July 2026, 62‑year‑old logistics entrepreneur Luigi Viscovo was killed in a violent collision in the Starze tunnel on State Road 18 near Vallo della Lucania, Italy. He was riding a motorcycle with his wife, Carmela, who survived with serious injuries. Initial police reports indicated the motorcycle struck a car, but the precise cause was undetermined at the time.

An autopsy revealed that he died from multiple severe fractures caused by a lateral impact after a 19‑year‑old driver attempted an unsafe overtaking maneuver inside the unlit Pattano tunnel. Police have identified the driver as a local suspect and are awaiting toxicology results. The investigation continues as an alleged case of involuntary manslaughter and grievous injury.
