In recent hours, Comandos de Salvamento has recorded the death of a motorcyclist at kilometer 4 of the Northern Trunk Highway, where the motorcycle rider lost control.

When the victim was evaluated by emergency medical technicians from Comandos de Salvamento, they determined that there were no longer any vital signs. With the assistance of the Policía Nacional Civil, they cordoned off the scene while awaiting the authorities to carry out the legally required inspection.

Another traffic incident occurred on San Bartolo Boulevard, where a motorcyclist was involved in a traffic accident, suffering trauma to the skull and other parts of the body. It was therefore necessary for Comandos de Salvamento rescuers to take the victim to the Ilopango Social Security hospital.

At kilometer 12 of the Northern Trunk Highway, Comandos de Salvamento assisted a woman who was struck along with her motorcycle, causing injuries to several parts of her body. The rescuers took her to a medical facility.

On Friday night, Comandos de Salvamento provided pre-hospital assistance to the rider of a motorcycle near the beginning of the Northern Trunk Highway in San Salvador. The victim was taken to a hospital.

At kilometer two of Army Boulevard, two vehicles crushed the rider of a motorcycle, causing trauma to his upper limb. The motorcycle became trapped between the two cars, which apparently failed to maintain a safe distance and caused the motorcyclist’s injuries.

In the city of Santa Ana, Comandos de Salvamento rescuers assisted motorcyclists involved in a traffic accident, in which two people were taken to the nearest hospitals.

Comandos de Salvamento urges drivers to respect traffic signs and speed limits, and not to become distracted by their cellphones, since in recent hours more than 10 motorcyclists have been taken to different hospitals.
