Motorcyclist Sent To Hospital After Freak Accident Causes Traffic Light To Drop
A motorcyclist has ended up in hospital after a freak accident caused a traffic light to fall onto the road.
The incident happened in Vjal l-Avvjazzjoni today at around 9:45am.
A pick-up truck being driven by a 27-year-old from Attard crashed into a set of traffic lights, according to TVM. The crash caused the traffic light pole to fall over.
However, at that moment, a motorcyclist was driving past, and ended up skidding to avoid the falling pole. The injured motorcyclist was taken to hospital shortly afterwards.
It is not yet known how serious the motorcyclist’s injuries are, but the pick-up truck driver reportedly remained uninjured.
