A man in his 40s from Rakiraki has tragically become the latest victim of a road accident in the country. Authorities believe he lost control of his vehicle, causing it to veer off the road and fall into a ditch. This unfortunate incident took place on Kings Road near Karavi in Ba shortly after 10 PM last night.

Sadly, the man was pronounced dead at the scene due to injuries sustained in the crash. This incident adds to the country’s growing road fatality statistics, bringing the current toll to 46, a notable decrease from 68 fatalities during the same period last year.

While this tragic event is a stark reminder of the importance of road safety, it is encouraging to note that road fatalities have decreased compared to last year. This decline suggests that efforts to improve road safety measures may be having a positive impact. Continued education and enforcement of safe driving practices are crucial in further reducing these numbers and preventing future tragedies.
