Titi Aur explains the tragedy in Timiș County: “Something happened inside the minibus.” Seven people died
Defensive driving expert Titi Aur explained what could have happened in the minibus involved in the DN6 – E70 tragedy, Timiș county, where seven people lost their lives and three others were injured. “An alternative would be that he was harmed or a strong distraction,” he said.
Titi Aur told Digi24 that the possibility that the driver fell asleep at the wheel is less likely, because the minibus was overtaking.
“It means that something happened inside the minibus. An alternative would be that he was hurt or a distraction that often occurs in professional drivers. A strong distraction that he didn't take into account that the car pulled to the left. Either he got into a discussion, or an argument, or he looked at his phone. It's hard to sayexplained the expert.
Titi Aur also analyzed the reaction of the TIR driver. He pointed out that a human's reflex time is about one and a half seconds and that in such circumstances avoiding the accident is almost impossible. “The driver of the gun didn't have time to do anything… in my view he couldn't have avoided it. Anyway he's not guilty”said the expert.
