Today's morning, Wednesday 18 October 2023, started in the worst possible way in the province of Belluno. In Quero Vas, to be precise along provincial road 1, a 35-year-old truck driver unfortunately lost his life in a truly absurd way. The man, originally from Treviso and resident in Salzano (Venice), went off the road with his heavy vehicle following a collision with a deer.
The animal would have suddenly crossed the road, even ending up in the driver's cab. The truck then overturned, ending up against some trees on the outside of the road. There was nothing that could be done for the 35-year-old, despite the desperate rescue attempts by the 118 staff. The ungulate also died following the impact. There was also another vehicle involved in the accident.
The car suffered some repercussions due to the accident, but the driver of the vehicle was unharmed. The accident occurred around 7 in the morning: the victim leaves behind her partner and her little daughter, another detail that makes this story even sadder.
