Collision on the A4 highway: Vehicle meets misfortune at construction zone, resulting in two fatalities.
Speeding disaster on the A4:
A shocking crash unfolded around mid-morning on the busiest stretch of the A4 highway between Latisana and Portogruaro, heading towards Venice's heart. The scene of the chaos involved a nimble car, two road maintenance vehicles - one belonging to Autostrade Alto Adriatico and the other from an external provider.
Just as you'd get near the Portogruaro toll booth, right at kilometer 452, a temporary construction site had popped up in lane three - the fastest lane – for the refurbishment of the central barriers. It was clearly marked for drivers coming from Trieste and secured by cones. At the time of the accident, the area was buzzing with routine traffic, with an average of 600 vehicles an hour.
Rumors suggest that a reckless driver somehow managed to evade the cones blocking off the construction site, then careened towards the central safety barrier, the reasons for which remain a mystery under police investigation. This led to a high-speed collision with the stationary Autostrade Alto Adriatico maintenance vehicle, causing it to slam into the external company's vehicle working on the site. Regrettably, the high-speed impact resulted in two fatalities – the unfortunate occupants of the speeding vehicle.
Emergency services, firefighters, Autostrade Alto Adriatico personnel, and mechanical rescue vehicles are onsite now. As a result of the incident, traffic is now congested between Latisana and Portogruaro, headed towards Venice.
