    We don’t know what his injuries are, but I hope the hospital gives an update soon.

    We keep seeing these kinds of accidents. Road conditions need reviewing, and drivers need to be more careful

    Here we go again! The “victim” should be ordered to pay for the cost of repairs of the damage and inconvenience caused. Obeying the country’s speed limits would NOT have caused such an horrific accident He/She seems to have been traveling alone. Thank God!

    You could see the impact from the way the vehicle was mashed up. The responders got there fast, thank God.

    Too many people misjudge that part of the Pares road. Authorities need to look into proper signage or barriers.

    Driving alone and losing control like that… could be fatigue, distraction, or something with the vehicle. Accidents happen so fast
