GVL Truck Involved in Terrible Accident
By: Kelvin Sneh
A truck, owned by Golden Veroleum Liberia , the multimillion-dollar company operating in Liberia's southeastern region, was involved in a severe accident along the Putu belt in Grand Gedeh County.
On Monday, a truck, which was returning from Tarjuwon in Sinoe County enroute to Grand Kru County, lost control and veered off the main road into the bush, overturning. According to the driver, who has over 10 years of experience handling both heavy and light-duty vehicles, the cause of the accident remains unclear.
"I recall approaching a bridge when the steering wheel became stuck, refusing to move freely in either direction. Despite my best efforts to keep the vehicle on the road, it was unavoidable, and we ended up in the bush, hitting some logs causing more damages on the truck" the driver explained. Fortunately, neither the driver nor the apprentice sustained any injuries or fatalities.
Following the incident, the truck was retrieved from the bush and brought closer to the main road, where it awaits repairs.
