A traffic accident related to death occurred in the city of Namangan on September 22. This was reported in the "Bu kun" (This day) show here.

It is noted that the incident occurred at 12:30 PM on "Diyor" street in the city. The driver of a "GAZ-53" model truck failed to notice a bicyclist moving ahead of him.

The boy turned sharply to the left on his bicycle at which point the truck driver, not noticing him, hit him. As a result, the boy was admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of closed cranial injury and died there.

"I saw the young boy riding his bicycle by the roadside. However, I did not expect him to suddenly come out onto the main road. I couldn't brake in time. I would ask everyone to adhere to traffic rules," — says the driver.

According to the information service of the Internal Affairs Department of Namangan region provided to darakchi.uz, a criminal case has been initiated against the 40-year-old driver under part 2 of Article 266 of the Criminal Code (Violation of traffic safety or operation of transport leading to human death).
