Two people were lucky to escape with slight injuries in a head-on collision in Salina Road, Naxxar, on Monday evening.

The driver and passenger of a Skoda Favorit, a 61-year-old man and 57-year-old woman from Paola, were trapped inside the car and were only released when civil protection personnel arrived on the scene.

The driver of the other car, a 43-year-old woman from Swieqi, emerged unscathed from her Fiat Brava.

Countless accidents have taken place on the coast road, which is marked by memorials of victims. The last one happened last week when a 24-year-old man from Naxxar was critically injured.

He was a passenger in a Fiat Punto, driven by a 23-year-old woman from Żebbuġ. She lost control of the car and crashed into a tree. The woman was treated for slight injuries.
