A new car accident with a bear victim occurred on Wednesday night on the Egnatia Odos, before the tolls of Siatista, as stated, on Facebook, the head of the Environment Company and Wildlife Care Station Nikos Panagiotopoulos:
"A few days after the last accident on the vertical axis of Egnatia, We were last night in a second accident on the main axis Grevena-Kozani just a few meters from the tolls of Siatista. The time the few kilometers but also the young animals of the same age , confirm our instructions for the increased attention required at this time or crossing the special points of Egnatia where they are highlighted and clearly marked . The unfortunate animal while trying to cross the road was fatally injured by a passing car ,. Without knowing further about the condition of the driver and the vehicle , since the driver was not at the spot but informed the toll station about the accident continuing his journey. Most likely the animal has passed through the shaft through the fence which means that the new high fence should be extended to other dangerous animal passages.. The incident was managed by OAE of Arcturus and Kallistos in the presence of the Kozani Forest Service , Kozani and Egnatia team
The increased traffic of the animal and human season require great care to avoid an accident… FOOT ON THE BRAKE !!!!”
