An accident on the bridge over the central Yuna River in Bonao caused two serious injuries and halted traffic for hours yesterday. As many readers may know, traffic at that spot is required to use just one of the two bridges crossing the river, due to damage suffered during the recent flooding. Yesterday, a small Daihatsu truck rear-ended a larger tanker truck that had stopped for traffic at the bottleneck. The small truck was, in turn, rear-ended by a passenger car. The truck driver and his companion were trapped for hours in the crumpled Daihatsu, until Civil Defense and Fire Department rescue workers could cut them out and get them to the nearest hospital. Traffic was backed up for kilometers as a result.
