A man on motorbike was killed on the southern highway this afternoon - and what's chilling is that it happened just a few hundred yards from another traffic fatality less than 48 hours earlier.
Today at around 3:00, 32 year old Sebastian Cucul was on his "Skygo" motorbike rounding a curve near mile 31 on the Southern Highway when he collided head on with an 18 wheeler carrying a full load of sand and gravel.
The driver of the 18 wheeler tried to avoid the impact and swerved, which caused the loaded truck to triple over on the side of the road, dumping the huge load.
Cucul did not survive the impact and died on the spot.
A clean up crew spent hours cleaning up the spill so that the road would be passable. On Monday night there was a head on collision between two vehicles at almost exactly that same spot. Pablo Salam was flung form his vehicle and died on the spot.
The police press office has not issued any details on the accident yet - so we don't know the name of the truck driver and if he will be served with a notice of intended prosecution.
