On Thursday evening, a tragic accident occurred on Colentina Road, where a pedestrian was fatally struck by a tram from line 21, near the Nicolae Canea station. The incident happened around 9:30 PM and led to the blockage of tram traffic on this line, one of the most frequently used in Bucharest. According to authorities, the pedestrian may have engaged in an illegal crossing, being caught off guard by the tram that was heading towards Piața Sfântul Gheorghe. The impact was so violent that the man was left trapped under the tram cars, and rescue teams were unable to resuscitate him.

The police have opened an investigation to determine the circumstances of the accident, including the speed of the tram and visibility conditions. The tram driver was tested and had not consumed alcohol or prohibited substances. Tram traffic was suspended in the direction towards the city center, and passengers were forced to seek alternative routes. Authorities remind the importance of adhering to traffic rules, especially in areas with heavy traffic.
