A tragic accident has struck the community of Villa Garibaldi, a hamlet of San Benedetto Po, where a 15-year-old student, Giorgia Coraini, lost her life after being hit by a car. The young girl had just gotten off the bus that was taking her home from school and was crossing the street when she was hit. The accident occurred in the early afternoon, leaving a deep mark in the hearts of her family and friends.
Rescuers arrived promptly at the scene of the accident, finding Giorgia in cardiac arrest. Resuscitation maneuvers restored a feeble heartbeat, enough to transport her urgently to the Maggiore hospital in Parma. Unfortunately, despite the efforts of the health workers, her heart stopped beating a few hours after admission. According to initial reports, the accident occurred shortly after 2:00 p.m. After stopping the bus coming from Mantua, Giorgia began to cross the former Virgiliana state road, a road known for its heavy traffic. While she was in the middle of the road, she was hit by a car traveling in the opposite direction. The driver, a 26-year-old woman, was not injured but was taken to the hospital for shock.
The force of the impact threw the girl down the slope opposite the road, making attempts to save her futile.
The news of the tragedy has deeply shocked the residents of the hamlet. The mayor of San Benedetto Po, Roberto Lasagna, visited the site of the accident and spoke with the citizens affected by the loss of the young woman known and loved by all. The Carabinieri intervened to collect elements useful for reconstructing the dynamics of the accident in an area where the speed limit is set at 70 km/h. The community is now wondering how to prevent similar tragedies in the future and what measures can be taken to ensure greater road safety for all. This sad story highlights the importance of road safety and the need to implement targeted interventions to protect the most vulnerable, such as pedestrians and students.
