Many injured in another accident at Juaso

Several passengers have been injured in an accident involving a Toyota Hiace with registration number GW 7474-21 which was traveling from Accra to Kumasi and another vehicle at Juaso on the Accra-Kumasi Highway.

Three of the victims are reported to be in critical condition. The accident occurred on Monday afternoon.

Information gathered indicated that the Toyota Hiace driver made a wrongful overtaking at a sharp curve and lost control. The vehicle then landed on the side of the road.

The suspect driver, Kwame Gyamfi refuted claims that he was speeding or made an overtaking.

He said there is no way he will waste the lives of his passengers, adding he is very cautious when behind the steering wheel.

Mr. Gyamfi, however, could not state what resulted in the accident.

Through the intervention of eyewitnesses and the Police MTTD, the victims were rushed to the Juaso Government Hospital for treatment.

This comes on the back of a head-on collision at Birimso near the Bunso stretch of the Accra to Kumasi highway which claimed nine lives and left scores injured.

The fatal crash occurred at about 4:30 am Sunday, March 26, 2023.
