There was a third person in the fire. a car in which a young woman from Targovishte burned herself alive
ChKolyo Ivanov, 51, from Nessebar, who swept 13 cars in Aytos on September 11, killed one woman and injured six, was convicted of robbery four times. According to sources in “24 Chasa”, the sentences are from the young years of circulation and he has already been rehabilitated. In the last 2-3 years, however, he has been fined multiple times for violating traffic rules.
The next, but this fatal time, is from Friday, when, drunk, Kolyo got on a truck full of 30 tons of wheat. Drive along the Ruen-Aytos road, crossing the Aytos pass. In the city bus station area, descending a steep section, you lose control of the heavy machine and literally fly towards cars stopped at traffic lights. On its way, the truck struck a pedestrian, who miraculously escaped with minor injuries and then swept several cars.
Initially, 7 crashed cars were reported, but according to the latest data, there are 13.
One of them, a Toyota with Targovishte registration, burst into flames after the gas cylinder exploded in the trunk. Ani, 28, from Targovishte, burned alive in the fire. The drama unfolds before the eyes of her boyfriend, who can’t get his love out, trapped between the crushed sheets. There was a third person in the burning car, “24-hour” sources reported.
Miraculously, he and the driver were not seriously injured. All three were on vacation on the Black Sea coast and were traveling around. Annie, burned with torches, was sitting in the back seat.
A 35-year-old woman from Aytos, who gave birth 3 days before the bloody riot, was the most seriously injured. She is in the intensive care unit of UMHAT-Burgas, the doctors are fighting for her life. The mother has a severe head injury. Depending on whether the woman will survive, it will be clear whether there will be a change in the rating of the prosecution against the circulator. She was introduced to the hospital room on Saturday.
Kolyo, 51, has several broken ribs and is under police surveillance. He is charged with causing the wrongful death of one person and inflicting moderate bodily harm on three people after using methamphetamine. The act was described as a particularly serious case, and the law provides for 5 to 20 years in prison, Burgas District Attorney Georgi Chinev, who is leading the investigation, told our reporter.
On Monday, the prosecution will ask the court to keep Ivanov in permanent custody. The other two with moderate injuries remain in the hospital, but their lives are not in danger, the other three victims are being treated at home.
The unprecedented accident shocked Aytos and once again highlighted the long-standing problem with hundreds of trucks passing through the city.
“This problem has been going on for years, there have been other deaths in various sections of this road artery, which is extremely crowded with trucks. They often move overloaded, their brakes fail. In the case of September 11, the automotive technical expertise he will say the specific reason, but there is also drug use, “said the mayor of Aytos Vasil Edrev, former director of the DO of the Ministry of the Interior in Burgas. He called on the State Automobile Inspectorate to strengthen control over trucks.
“The Aytos-Ruen road is dangerous and very busy in all seasons of the year. Heavy trucks mainly move to northern Bulgaria and vice versa, and in the summer the trucks transport mainly cereals. What happened is a great tragedy . Good luck with a single victim. We hope that the state acts. There are enough signs and road markings. But obviously everything is in the consciousness of the leaders, “added the mayor.
He recalled that 20 years ago a bypass project had been prepared to remove the trucks from Aytos, but the problem was its financing.
Mihail Popov, Expert from the Institute of Highway Safety: If you take the drugs, it’s too late
If a driver takes a drug, it is too late, he becomes a different person. He’s not even under the influence of drugs. Then it is too late for punishment.
But if this same driver knows in advance that if he is caught behind the wheel with drugs, he will not get out of jail, that his car will be taken away, that his life will be ruined, that is another question.
For cases like Aytos and the drugged young man who killed Milen Tsvetkov while waiting at a red light, even more serious penalties are needed. Stronger laws to have a preventive effect.
If the children of the mother of wealthy families, who often drive drunk and drugged, know that if they are caught raping, they can find themselves in the street with a broom in hand, and the media will photograph them, they will think twice.
Similar incidents occur in other countries, but it seems that here we have focused too much and only on the behavior of drivers and how to influence them.
To change the situation, complex measures are needed, not just conductors. You cannot search for different results with the same measurements.
It is very important to have a safe infrastructure, as well as the presence of more police on the road. I am aware that the traffic cops are few and that is exactly why this circulator probably thought they would not stop him, he exceeded the speed limit. We have often witnessed this type of behavior on the road.
