One person died in a car accident that occurred at Mandoumba along the Yaounde-Douala highway on Friday April 1, 2016 at 10:00p.m.
Reports say the truck with number plate LTSR 349 loaded with sacks of cement, was heading to Yaounde when its driver lost track before driving some 50 metres away into a bush nearby. As a result, the conductor who allegedly was sitting on sacks of cement reportedly died on the spot while the driver had his two legs broken.
Eyewitness reports say the conductor’s body was recovered from the bush but his right leg was not found. The witnesses told Cameroon Tribune that the driver complained that the accident was due to break failure. According to the witnesses, the accident was equally due to the poor state of the road in that area. Some of them said due to a deep pothole in the area, at least 60 vehicles get involved in accidents every week. The driver was rushed to the Yaounde Central Hospital where he is being administered treatment.
