A man of just 40 years old, MB originally from and resident of Cattolica, lost his life late yesterday afternoon following a tragic accident road accident occurred in the Rimini area. The victim was on board a 125 cc scooter when he first hit a car, then fell to the ground and was hit by the same car. The 118 rescuers intervened on site and could not help but confirm his death.
Yet another drama on Italian roads occurred around 6pm yesterday, Tuesday 18 June 2024, on the road that connects Riccione to Rimini, on the border between Riccione and Miramare. The accident involved two vehicles, a 125cc scooter and a car and was, according to what has emerged so far, completely accidental.
He was traveling on board the two-wheeled vehicle MB a 40 year old native and resident of Catholic, which was headed towards Rimini. An elderly married couple was also heading towards Rimini in a Volkswagen Polo. The two vehicles would have come into contact and immediately afterwards the scooter rider would have fallen onto the asphalt. A tragic fate meant that it ended up right on the roadway and that the same car with which he had impacted a few moments before, it invested.
The 77-year-old who was driving the car may have been hit by a reflection of the sun. In any case, it seems that he did not realize what was happening and could not have done anything to avoid the impact
They intervened promptly on site rescuers of 118 left from Rimini and Riccione, but also an air ambulance took off from Ravenna. Unfortunately their intervention was of no avail, the 40 year old was died practically instantlydue to the serious trauma suffered in the accident.
A similar accident, with an unfortunately similar epilogue, occurred the day before Cava de’ Tirreni, in the province of Salerno. The victim in this case was very young, just 17 years old. Francesco Pontone, this is the name of the boy, fell from his scooter after hitting a car in the queue and ended up in the opposite lane. At that moment a truck was passing by, the driver of which was unable to do anything to avoid running over it.
