A young man was critically injured in a crash yesterday at 5:45pm on the Għaxaq Bypass.
Preliminary investigations found that the young man, a 21-year-old living in Gudja, was travelling in a Peugeot 205 driven by another male, a 22-year-old living in Żejtun, towards Bir id-Deheb when they collided with a public bus being driven in the same direction by a woman, a 55-year-old living in Naxxar.
The passenger was hospitalised and certified to be suffering from critical injuries while the driver was found to have sustained slight injuries.

These accidents have been happening once too often. It is unbelievable that nothing is being done to minimize, at least, all these daily crashes and sometimes fatalities. But may I ask is not there anyone responsible to keep good order on our streets.? He should be replaced immediately as he is making quite a mess out of his duty at the expense of the tax payer and people's lives, that is. Our Traffic Police is nothing but a farce. They are practically nowhere to be found. except AFTER a collision has occurred, But then what's the use. They should be on our main roads to deter would be law breakers and see that bon ordni prevails on our roads. Not all this fracas.

No one wishes this and hope recoveries are quick and full.However, what we will learn(or be informed)from this incident and the many similar other-especially the proliferation of "head-on " crashs?That the driver simply "LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE ?" with never any how or why ?
