After 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, a frontal collision between a Chilean patent truck and a Peugeot 208 left one dead on National Route 22, in Zapala. The first information shows that the victim is the person who was driving the car.
The fact was confined to Diario RÍO NEGRO by Civil Defense from where they reported that “there are still personnel from the Zapala Fire Department and Police working in the place.”
The fatal crash occurred 8 kilometers from the city, although at first it transpired that it had occurred in the sector known as “subida del capo”.
The trucker was unharmed and it was learned that he was coming in the direction of Neuquén capital, while the smaller vehicle in the opposite direction. The first hypothesis considered in the place is that of a poorly carried out overpass maneuver, which ended with the car meeting the truck head-on.
Due to the impact, traffic was delayed and long lines of vehicles were generated in both lanes of Route 22. Civil Defense assured this medium that the queues “They reached two kilometers on each side.”
More than 60 trucks stranded in Zapala due to the closure of the Pino Hachado pass
On the other hand, the area reported that there are more than 60 trucks stranded in the city of Zapalaas a consequence of the closure of the pass Pine Hatchetthe bus with the highest circulation between Neuquén and Chile, due to inclement weather.
This situation is also replicated in Las Lajaswhere it is estimated that the number of stranded transports is double, at least 120, and they no longer have space to house more.
A large sector of the Neuquén mountain range received this week heavy snowfall and rainwhich caused complications in transit through the province’s routes, and in this case, at border crossings such as Pino Hachado and Cardenal Samoré, further south.
