A tipper truck with registration number GE 8814-21 collided with an articulated truck at Buduatta Junction on the Kasoa-Cape Coast Highway in the Central Region, leaving the driver and two assistants seriously injured.

The victims were quickly transported to St. Gregory Hospital for treatment.

Police reports indicate that the tipper truck, registered as GM 2314-21, was traveling toward Accra, while the articulated truck was heading in the opposite direction to Takoradi.

In a conversation with Adom News, Daniel Addai, the driver of the articulated truck, explained that as he neared Gomoa Buduatta Junction, he noticed the tipper truck veering into his lane, seemingly because the driver had fallen asleep.

Despite his attempts to steer clear, the weight of his loaded truck made it impossible to avoid the collision.

Ebo Anderson, part of the Rapid Response Team at Gomoa Potsin, who assisted the police in rescuing the injured, called on drivers to prioritize safety and avoid reckless driving practices.
