Four people were injured in a traffic accident that occurred around midday today on the Kyrenia-Tatlisu main road; they were taken to hospital for treatment, Yeniduzen reports.
According to information from the Police Press Office, the accident happened at 11.45 am. Ali Demirci (48), driving a pickup truck, carelessly entered the Kyrenia-Tatlisu main road from a supermarket parking area. At that moment, his vehicle collided with the front right side of a car driven by Ali Kayım (50), which was already travelling along the main road.
The impact caused Ali Kayım’s vehicle to spin out of control, crossing to the right side of the road and colliding head-on with a car driven by Tanya Hudson (54), who was approaching from the opposite direction. The collision caused both vehicles to overturn and come to rest in the roadside embankment. One vehicle ended up on its roof, while the other came to a stop on its left side.
