Two injured after a hearse crashes into a tree in Holguin.

Two people, the driver and the passenger of a hearse, were injured in a traffic accident in the city of Holguin.

The accident happened when the vehicle crashed into a tree at the intersection of Central Road and Martí Street, in the city of Holguín, as shared by the user Pedro Domínguez in the Facebook group "ACCIDENTES BUSES & CAMIONES for more experience and fewer victims!".

"Domínguez mentioned issues with the brakes in the publication."

In the shared images, significant damages to the front part of the car can be observed.

The decline in the availability of hearses is significant, especially considering that these types of vehicles are scarce in the country, and funeral transfers have become more complex in Cuban reality.

In mid-June, a video showed how a truck was used as an improvised hearse due to the deteriorated state of the fleet of vehicles dedicated to these services in Santiago de Cuba.

The independent journalist Yosmany Mayeta denounced on Facebook the crisis of funeral services in the province and showed a video of a truck intended for mass passenger transportation that had to carry a coffin.

In Bauta, Artemisa province, a Cuban family had to transport their deceased in a tricycle to the cemetery due to the lack of fuel in the country.

In a video shared with CiberCuba, you can see how the coffin is being transported on a tricycle, commonly used for the transportation of personnel or goods.

The daughter of the Cuban actor Carlos Massola, who passed away just over a week ago on the island in a sudden manner, reported that they spent seven hours waiting for a hearse to pick up her father's body.

Also, a hearse fell into the Damují River in Rodas, Cienfuegos. Fortunately, it was not carrying any deceased person, and the driver was able to be rescued from the water in time.
