Bad Accident on Via Boquete at the intersection for Santa Rosa

[Keith Woolford]

Injured taken to Hospital. I assume this is near Los Anastacios

Who was at fault?

[Keith Woolford]

No idea on this one but taxis are always suspect. The lady in the pink blouse seems to know. Check the location of the pedestrian crosswalk in relation to where these vehicular gymnastics took place.

I would like to know what driving mistakes were made if you know

so that I could be sure to not make them myself.

Thanks,

On my way to the Airport a couple of hours ago, I passed this mess on Avenida Central in David. One person injured and hospitalized. 

I'm posting notices of some of these accidents to increase awareness that dangers surround us and it is necessary to drive with total awareness.

Are you the Keith that was a volunteer in the botanical garden in Costa Rica

[Keith Woolford]

Nope, sorry.

One woman has succumbed to her injuries, Celeste Almeida.

[Keith Woolford]

Only 27 years of age, a Venezuelan citizen. Too young.

This accident did take place at the intersection on the new section of 4-lane on the Via Boquete at Los Anastacios where one can turn right to go to Tinajas and eventually the InterAmerican Highway.

This is a 4-corner intersection where there are a lot of people making left hand turns into oncoming traffic. Judging by the position of the truck, I'm guessing that someone turned left towards Anastacios from the southbound lanes and got creamed by a northbounder. The spot where the truck came to rest, as can be seen in the photo, is a freshly filled site on the southeast corner .
