The Assistant Divisional Officer Grade 1 ADO1 Ebenezer Fiifi Dadzie of the Ghana National Fire Service Winneba Branch revealed that the Bonnet of the Toyota Corolla salon car opened and hit his windscreen, causing the accident.

According to ADO1 Ebenezer Fiifi Dadzie, the driver lost control after the bonnet obscured his windscreen and collided with the side of the articulator car.

“We got a call around 9 a.m. that there was an accident.” We deployed our personnel to the spot. According to our information, the Corolla lost control when its bonnet was removed and collided with the windscreen. He then jumped into the trailer’s lane and crashed into it. The caravan driver also tried his hardest to save the situation. We have taken those who have been injured to the hospital for treatment. They were seriously hurt.

We have always claimed that drivers conduct daily routine checks. Before you drive, you should inspect the car and check the brakes, lights, and other critical components.”
