Seven vehicles were damaged in a chain accident that occurred this morning (Friday) in the Rabin neighborhood, but fortunately no serious injuries were recorded among the drivers and passengers.
Eyewitnesses to the accident said that the circumstances of the accident were quite strange: Shortly after 11 a.m. in the Rabin neighborhood, a private vehicle drove backwards for unknown reasons, broke through the dividing fence between the street and the unloading compound near the Shufersal branch. Immediately afterwards, the vehicle turned forward, exited the compound and hit a number of vehicles traveling on the road, until it stopped. According to local people, the driver of the car, a resident of Karmiel in his sixties, got out of his car independently after the accident and looked shocked by what was happening.
Medical teams were called to the scene and performed tests and treated the injured drivers. Fortunately the condition of the wounded was defined as mild, while damage was caused, as stated, to at least seven vehicles.
