______________
The traffic accident occurred on March 27, 2026, around 3:00 PM. Preliminary information indicates that the driver of the "Mercedes-Benz E420," a citizen M.D.B., born in 1987, was traveling east on the highway. At that time, another driver, M.U.E., born in 1979, behind the wheel of a "Volkswagen Passat," was turning from the left side of the road.
To avoid a collision with the exiting "Volkswagen," the driver of the "Mercedes" executed a maneuver, resulting in him entering the oncoming lane through a gap in the dividing barrier. Consequently, a head-on collision occurred with a "Renault Samsung SM6," driven by citizen J.K.A., born in 1988.
As a result of the incident, both drivers—the one operating the "Mercedes-Benz E420" and the driver of the "Renault Samsung SM6"—died at the scene from their injuries.
