They collided head-on with a truck, and both vehicles caught fire shortly after the tragedy. The 33-year-old Belgian driver has died. His 28-year-old companion was hospitalized in serious condition.

According to local media, the Belgian lost control of his vehicle hitting the truck head-on. The truck was carrying building materials and three people were on board. Their state of health is not worrying but they were all three transported to hospital.

The young woman is from Grivegnée (Liège) and is called Jessica. Her dad Philippe gives her news via RTLInfo: “Jessica suffers from a lot of fractures, which go from the knees to the ribs, including the pelvis. She has had several operations so far, operations lasting over 6 hours. And she’s got a big third-degree burn on her ankle. And the plastic surgeon was to see this Tuesday morning whether to operate or not for this burn. She’s stable… But that’s all we know”.

He doesn’t have many details about the circumstances of the accident. “From what we now know, Laurent would have turned in a bend with the quad. The quad would not have turned well and they would inevitably have found themselves on the left lane, in a bend. And they would have found themselves face to face with a truck. So they took the truck from the front. I know that both, the truck as well as the quad, caught fire. On the details of the accident, that’s about all we know at the moment. We really don’t have any additional information.”

He continues: “I heard, but is it true or not, that supposedly the quads would not be insured on the road. I still have a lot of questions. Because from the moment you rent a quad somewhere, when you get out of there, even 200 or 300 meters, you have to take a road to get somewhere. Greece is still a tourist country, so if that’s true, I don’t quite understand. It should be mandatory to insure it for the road. But so far the police haven’t told us whether they could be there or not.’
