The taxi driver accused of hitting four cyclists in the La Gaitana neighborhood, in the northwestern part of Bogotá, appeared before the Traffic and Transportation Directorate and, although he will have to answer for personal injuries and failure to help, he is free for now.
His car had the panoramic and fenders destroyed after running over the group of bicycle users.
“It is about Mr. Brandon Mauricio Moreno, 22 years old. The arraigo and identity verification has already been carried out, he has been placed at the disposal of the investigation, we hope that once the Prosecutor takes the case, it will verify the responsibility of those who they were part of the road accident, “revealed Colonel Gustavo Blanco, commander of the Bogotá Traffic Police.
The accident was recorded in a security camera, where it is observed how the taxi driver violently runs over four cyclists
and one of them is even dragged several meters and the front tire of the vehicle almost passes over it.
The samples would prove that the driver collided with them head-on and without intention to evade them, and then left them abandoned.
The traffic authorities drew attention to the caution that must be exercised in residential areas and asked cyclists to wear protective elements such as helmets.
