Two months after the accident of the bus of the Unaza line in Tirana, which went off the road and fell on Lana's bed while stuck there, the prosecution has received the results of the technical and electronic expertise of the vehicle.
According to the report that auto-technical experts have forwarded to the Tirana prosecutor's office, the bus involved in the accident of April 29, 2022, had no technical defect. The electronic box of the truck of this vehicle was unharmed and without problems.
These technical and scientific results obtained by vehicle testing engineers in Kashar, bring opposition to the testimony of the bus driver, reports OraNews.
The 62-year-old driver Muhamet Kuçuku, in his testimony, told the traffic police that there was a defect in the electronic bus of the bus. According to the driver, this led to his going off the road and then ended up on the two slopes of the Lana River.
But the Tirana prosecutor's office says that from looking at the film footage, it is concluded that the driver of the vehicle did not position the vehicle in the space adapted as a bus station.
Film footage shows the vehicle being positioned outside the station space, blocking one of the lanes of the road. Then, when he closed the 3 doors of the bus and started walking fast, the driver of the city positioned the vehicle, directly in the speed lane.
This has led to the collision with one of the accident vehicles, which has led to the departure of the Benz-Mercedes vehicle from the city bus itself afterwards. As a result of these uncontrolled actions by the urban driver and the results of the act of technical expertise of the vehicle, the Tirana prosecutor's office in the coming days will communicate to the driver the accusation of "Violation of traffic rules."
At the time of the accident, there were over 20 people inside the bus, who were moving from one station to another. The incident ended with only a few lightly injured persons who received medical assistance at the hospital.
