UPDATED: Driver critical after Zabbar collision
A 32-year-old van driver from Naxxar was critically injured this afternoon when his Seat Terra was involved in collision with two cars in Hompesch Road, Zabbar.
The incident happened at around 5.30 p.m. near the traffic lights. The van crashed into the centre strip and then the two cars, a Peugeot 405 and a Fiat Punto.
The man was trapped in the wreckage of his van and required assistance by the personnel from the Civil Protection Department before he was rushed to Mater Dei Hospital.
No one else was injured.
The incident was the second major one in Zabbar today. In the morning, a 20-year-old man from Senglea had a lucky escape when the Honda Civic he was
driving to Marsascala crashed into a wall and then uprooted an
electricity pole which crashed on top of the vehicle. He was not injured.

Just did 1,900 km abroad in 2 weeks, and all I found was just a single pothole! We need better roads as well!
Traffic accidents are becoming more frequent than the air we breath in. I am seriously thinking of quiting driving once and for all!
