Images shared by the internet user showed a Soviet-made ZIL truck overturned on the side of the road. Apparently, the truck was carrying some liquid tanks in its cargo compartment.

The causes that led to the incident and the damages caused to the cargo are unknown. In the comments on the post, the author assured that the driver had not suffered serious injuries.

Several internet users commented on the poor condition of the road that connects Santa Clara with Sagua la Grande, a situation that has been reported on previous occasions following accidents that occurred on this route.

In the first week of August, a car belonging to a church in Sagua la Grande suffered a shocking accident after crashing into a tree on the road leading to the town of Wilfredo Pagés, which is part of the Cifuentes municipality.

In the incident, where only minor injuries were reported for the occupants of the vehicle, there were indeed considerable damages to the car, which received a significant удар to its front part.

Recently, the driver of a Cuban state truck was injured after his vehicle fell from the Santa María del Rosario bridge, located in the Havana municipality of Cotorro.

At the beginning of August, a truck fell from a bridge while traveling down a road towards Berroa, in Havana. Fortunately, its occupants emerged unscathed from the accident, according to witnesses.

Around the same time, a GAZ truck was left suspended on its rear wheels at a traffic light in Havana, apparently due to an imbalance caused by the load it was carrying.
