On Saturday night (14), a tragic accident on BR-050 in Uberaba resulted in the death of a 32-year-old man. He was driving without a seatbelt when he collided with the rear of another vehicle, which caused his car to overturn. Emergency services confirmed his death at the scene of the accident. The negligence of not wearing a seatbelt appears to have been a critical factor leading to the fatal outcome.

Three individuals were traveling in the other vehicle involved in the crash. One of them sustained moderate injuries, while the other two were treated for minor injuries. All three occupants of the second vehicle were transported to Uberaba Regional Hospital by the rescue team from the concessionary Ecovias Minas Goiás. The swift response from emergency services ensured that those injured received necessary medical attention as quickly as possible.

Following the incident, there was a partial closure of the roadway to facilitate victim assistance and conduct an official investigation. Such accidents highlight the critical importance of wearing seatbelts while driving, which can significantly reduce the risk of fatal injuries in car crashes. Authorities continue to emphasize the need for road safety measures to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
