Violent collision in the Lot, miraculously without injuries but with major material damage

the essential
The night from Saturday to Sunday was particularly agitated in Figeac, in the Lot, where the gendarmes had to intervene promptly with sirens blaring. Around 2 a.m., a large German 4×4 collided with two vans on the road, at the exit of a large bend in front of the Delbar store, well known to Figeac residents. An area considered accident-prone. No injuries were reported.

The collision between three vehicles, two vans and a 4X4 that occurred last night in Figeacois, on a road limited to 50 km, in the direction of Villefranche, precisely at a place called Lascombe, in a very sharp bend, did not cause no injuries. It's almost a miracle when you look at the condition of the vehicles.

Negative alcohol tests

Indeed, the damage, fortunately, is only material in this road accident. Both vans were badly damaged. According to the first elements of the gendarmerie investigation and the tests carried out on the protagonists, alcohol is not involved.

The speed could, for its part, help explain the damage observed, even if we must remain cautious in this case in the hands of the investigators.

A local resident very upset by this new fact

One of the residents of this neighborhood is particularly upset by this new significant event that has occurred under her windows.

This would be “the fiftieth accident at this location” she insisted, recalling that she has reported this problem “many times to the authorities” from whom she expects responses and action.
