A private Chevrolet vehicle collided with a lamppost last weekend on the road connecting Bayamo to Holguín, resulting in several injuries, according to social media reports. However, the exact number of injured individuals remains unknown. The incident reportedly occurred after an encounter with another vehicle, forcing the driver onto the road divider.
"A truck came alongside and reportedly cut it off, causing the car to mount the divider," commented a user in the Facebook group "Accidentes Automovilísticos en Cuba." Another witness claimed, "It seems it was heading towards Bayamo and hit the divider before crashing into the lamppost."
An online observer added, "Whatever the reason, now we have to spend the hard-earned money to repair it, or else it'll be left in a corner." The shared images show the car's front end suffered significant damage, with the hood and bumper notably impacted, and the left tire dislodged from its position.
Last Thursday, a Chevrolet and a Lada collided near a pedestrian crossing in the Castillo de Averhoff area, in the municipality of Arroyo Naranjo, Havana, without any human casualties. The damage was considerable to both vehicles, with the Chevrolet sustaining the most severe impact, having a front tire almost entirely out of place.
Additionally, last Friday, a three-car crash occurred near Terminal 1 of the Havana Airport in the municipality of Boyeros. The accident involved an Immigration patrol vehicle and two private cars, all of which suffered significant damage.
