The impacts were significant on both vehicles, although it was evident that the Chevrolet suffered the most consequences, as it had a front tire that was practically out of its position.

In the scene, the drivers can be seen next to their cars, with no human injuries reported.

"An accident at a crosswalk, what is being seen in Cuba is unique in the world," confessed a user in the comments of the post.

Another person assured that "they do not respect that crosswalk, knowing that there is a school on that block."

Meanwhile, a user concluded that "that (the accident) happens because they still do not respect traffic laws."

Last Saturday, also in Havana, a Chevrolet was destroyed after catching fire on 15th Street at the corner of L, in El Vedado.

A short circuit was the cause of this incident, which prompted the firefighters to respond quickly.

Near that area, on Tuesday afternoon, a concrete mixer truck crashed into the exterior wall of the Hotel Habana Libre, with no reports of human injuries.

The accident occurred on L Street between 23 and 25, in El Vedado, according to reports on social media.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday, a truck overturned a container in the middle of the street in the Valle Grande neighborhood, in the municipality of La Lisa, Havana.

Fortunately, the incident did not result in any injuries.
