Van-lorry collision in Amendolara, inferno of sheet metal on the 106: driver pulled from the car after an hour

Van against truck, man stuck for about an hour between the twisted sheets of his car waiting for the Castrovillari Fire Brigade to arrive.
The collision between a “Securit” vehicle from Altamura which was escorting, together with another vehicle from the same Apulian company, a lorry carrying exceptional iron transport, occurred on state road 106 near the town of the Amendola marina, in the part of the road where the tutor is installed, although not functioning. Probably a fall of sleep, in spite of himself, would have caused the driver of the private escort traveling towards Taranto to lose control of his car, who invaded the oncoming lane and ended up against a garbage compactor which was instead passing in the direction of Reggio Calabria. The bang was terrible. On site were the Trebisacce 118 ambulances without a doctor on board, the Carabinieri of the Radiomobile of the Cassano Company led by Captain Chiara Baione, the men of Anas and Aci and indeed the firefighters of the city of Pollino who had to work with shears and tools of the trade to extract the body of the vigilante who was urgently transferred to the PS of the Cosenza Hospital. And the Trebisacce Fire Department continues to be inexplicably closed and for a rescue considering the kilometric distance from Castrovillari, it takes at least 60 minutes. Which could prove fatal for a life-saving intervention.
