Two minibuses from a football club collided in Aveyron. The accident caused numerous injuries, mainly minors.
Children's sport and transport
Transporting children when it comes to sports is sometimes complicated. Between the lack of means to have a bus, the lack of staff to be able to ensure travel or even the unavailability of parents to help.
Road accidents continue to make the news in France. Unfortunately, they affect all types of vehicles and when they affect children, it becomes even more terrible.
A football club affected
Transporting children when it comes to sports is sometimes complicated. Between the lack of means to have a bus, the lack of staff to be able to ensure travel or even the unavailability of parents to help. And when everything comes together to have the means of transport to get to the matches, everything does not always go as planned. Sometimes the worst happens. This was the case in Aveyron where two minibuses had an accident. They collided and what was supposed to be a day of joy and sharing turned into a nightmare. Of course, the football match did not take place and the young people of the Avenir Foot Lozère club want to forget this dramatic incident and just play again without thinking about the next trip.
Many injured
The accident took place shortly before 8 p.m. between two minibuses which were transporting children from the football club in question on the RN88, near the town of La Loubière. There were a total of 11 injured, including two 13-year-old teenagers in relative emergency. On the other hand, a 26-year-old young man was transported in absolute emergency, and the driver of one of the vehicles is in critical condition.
The mayor of La Loubière speaks
Faced with such a catastrophe, the mayor of La Loubière, Magalie Bessaou, who visited the site, declared to Center Presse Aveyron: "How sad that such a thing should happen to our community. In this period when we are working on the RN88, I hope that the anti-all will be able to understand the importance of this project. The new RN88 must help save lives in the future.
On social networks, messages abounded on the web: ''We can no longer leave our children safe to go play football'' or even: ''Two buses from the same club, but were they sleeping or what?'', could -we read about X in particular.
Among the pros, it becomes serious
If this accident which affected children but also a young man and a driver is terrible, what is happening among professional players is not more reassuring. The Olympique Lyonnais bus was stoned by Marseille supporters as it arrived at the Stade Vélodrome when the OM - OL match was to close the 10th day of Ligue 1 a little less than a month ago. Lyon coach Fabio Grosso was hit in the face, his assistant was also injured while we later learned that fan buses were also targeted. This was not a simple accident.
