Auto Crash Kills Bride, 6 Family Members On The Way To Her Wedding Reception
Tragedy struck on the highway between
Hafr Al Baten and Dammam, the largest city in eastern Saudi Arabia when a
bride on her way to her wedding reception with six members of her
family were killed in a collision between their car and a trailer.
The victims were four women, two men and one girl, said Fahad Al Ghamdi, a spokesman for the Red Crescent in the Eastern Province, Saudi media reported on Thursday.
The tragedy happened at around 10:30am and reports said a third car was involved in the accident.
In
a separate accident in the gulf country, two young men were killed when
their car crashed into a lamppost in Al Ihsa, an oasis region in
eastern Saudi Arabia.
Road accidents are numerous and often tragic on Saudi roads despite regular campaigns launched by the authorities to promote a safer traffic culture.
The massive presence of trucks and trailers and a tendency by all drivers to speed are often blamed for the alarmingly high figures of accidents.
