U A serious accident occurred on the E34 on Tuesday around 11:15 in Maldegem (East Flanders). A truck stamped five cars and another truck waiting at a red light. Four members of the same family lost their lives
The driver of the truck that caused Tuesday a fatal accident in Maldegem was detained, says the prosecutor's office in East Flanders. The truck towed a trailer carrying a bulldozer and he stamped five vehicles that were stationary. In the first car hit, the four pbadengers, members of the same family, lost their lives. The driver was not under the influence of alcohol or drugs
The reason the truck did not stop in time is not yet known. A traffic expert has been appointed. The truck driver, a 27-year-old man from Lokeren, was tested negatively for alcohol and drugs. The public prosecutor's office withdrew his driver's license for 15 days and was deprived of his liberty.
Apparently the truck landed partially above the vehicle at the back of the line. The four pbadengers did not survive. They are two women: a thirty-year-old woman and her mother, who is 60 years old. The other two victims are two children, aged 3.
Two other people were slightly injured and taken to hospital. The other victims were in shock and were treated on the spot.
