A trailer has run over three salon cars at Sokoban in the Ashanti Region, leaving one person dead.
A trailer with registration AS 9456 D lost control of its brake and run over three salon cars, mangling two of the cars.
According to eyewitnesses, the vehicle, which was carrying a 40-foot container, was coming from Sokoban on the Ahodwo-Trede road.
The deceased is identified as a male who was driving with his wife, who got injured.
The woman and another person in a different car are receiving treatment at the Asafo Agyei Hospital.
The Assembly member of the Sokoban-Daaban area, Kojo Boateng, attributed the accident party to the slow pace of the road construction.
"It was dangerous. We are even lucky today is a holiday, it would have been worse.
"That's why we are saying the contractors should speed up the road construction. I don't think it would have been a problem if the dual road construction is completed," he said.
