On Wednesday evening hours, 3 people died and 3 were severely injured when two cars collided along Kigali-Butare highway. Police sources say the accident resulted from careless driving, over speeding and overloading.
However, in a matter of minutes after the collision, Police and Army arrived at the scene for rescue with ambulances.
The injured were immediately rushed to Kigali Central Hospital (CHUK).The dead were carried by Police van to a mortuary and vehicle wrecks were taken to Runda Police station.
Police once again warned the drivers to avoid careless driving and over speeding as they lead to fatal accidents that claim Rwandan lives.
Police spokesman Superintendent Theos Badege reminded drivers that tough measures have been put in place to discipline drivers who violate laws.
“Drivers have been warned on several occasions against violating traffic regulations but now we are going to apply tougher measures to contain traffic accidents,” Supt. Badege warned.
