A man in his 30s tragically lost his life in a motor vehicle accident in Nasinu early this morning. Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Mitieli Divuana, the Director of Traffic, reported that the collision occurred near the Nasinu road junction shortly after 3 a.m.
The victim was en route to Suva when his vehicle was involved in a collision with another car, driven by a man also in his 30s, who was traveling in the opposite direction. Emergency services rushed the victim to the Colonial War Memorial Hospital, but he was sadly pronounced dead upon arrival.
SSP Divuana stated that investigations are ongoing to clarify the details surrounding the accident.
Despite this tragic incident, it’s worth noting that the road death toll for this year stands at 46, a significant decrease from the 68 fatalities recorded during the same period last year. This statistic highlights ongoing efforts to improve road safety and reduce accidents.
As we mourn the loss of this individual, it serves as a reminder of the importance of safe driving practices and road awareness. Each life lost is profound, and communities must come together to reinforce safe driving habits to prevent such incidents from happening in the future.
