Operatives of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), yesterday, rescued a trapped driver and his assistant from under a mini truck loaded with sachet water.
Special Adviser to the Governor on Transportation, Sola Giwa, confirmed that the incident occurred near Adeniji, inward Sura, descending from the Third Mainland Bridge, Lagos.
Giwa stated that the accident involved a sachet water mini truck (SMK 796 YE) and two Mazda vehicles (AGL 576 TG and AKD 531 YC).
He stressed that preliminary investigations revealed that the driver of the mini truck lost control due to brake failure, and collided with the two Mazda cars.
The injured driver and his assistant were immediately taken to hospital by the owner of the truck.
LASTMA personnel promptly cleared the road to ensure a free flow of traffic towards Lagos Island.
Giwa emphasised the importance of safety while driving and expressed his sympathy to persons injured in the accident.
