The driver of a Nissan Amira car, yesterday escaped death by the whiskers, when his vehicle skidded-off the bridge at Julius Berger round about in Abuja.
Our reporter, who visited the scene of the accident near the popular Berger junction, gathered that the young man, whose name could not be ascertained, lost control of the vehicle and the car skidded off the road landing on its rear below the bridge.
The accident which occurred at the peak of the evening rush, left onlookers wondering how the driver managed to escape death with just minor injuries.
Eyewitness account has it that the driver was seen making phone calls prior to the incident. This according to witnesses might have resulted in the accident.
The victim was taken to a nearby hospital, while the vehicle was towed to a nearby police station.
