Two Mechanics Die In Ghastly Accident After Taking Client’s Car On A Test Drive

Two mechanic apprentices have died in a ghastly accident on the Taifa Bankyease – Atomic Down Roundabout Road in the Dome-Kwabenya constituency.

The unfortunate incident is said to have occurred on Saturday, February 25, 2022.

The victims were reportedly on a test drive with a vehicle a customer brought to their garage for spraying.

According to the eyewitnesses, the driver was speeding and lost control of the vehicle.

The country is losing its human capital to accident-related deaths, and productive lives are being rendered disabled due to severe injuries.

More than 200 people die monthly in road accidents in Ghana, the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) has said.

The latest figure was for the period between January 1, 2022, and August 31, 2022, which accounted for 1,600 deaths.

This represents a 16% decrease compared to the same period in 2021, which recorded 1,800 deaths.
