Carabineros reported that 21 people died in road accidents during the long weekend, three more than at the same time last year. Of this new total, 12 fatal victims were pedestrians and among them, 6 were intoxicated

The final balance was delivered this morning by Major Tulio Benavides, of the Transit Prefecture and de Routes, who added that there were 200 fewer accidents than last year on the same date, but with a greater number of deaths.

"It is quite unfortunate, since we were deployed about 700 Carabineros at the national level carrying out exclusively transit work to prevent accidents. However, misfortunes that occurred are not controllable by the Carabineros. "

Finally, Benavides reported that 278 thousand vehicles left the capital during the long weekend and that most of them have already returned.

The number of deaths was increased to 19 this long weekend
