In the early hours of Saturday, two young men aged 25 and 23 tragically died in a motorcycle accident involving a truck on the Prefeito Edmir Vianna Moura Highway (SP-062) in Caçapava, São Paulo. The incident occurred around 2:40 AM, when the motorcycle collided with a truck that was turning onto a side street. One of the victims died at the scene, while the other was taken to the hospital but succumbed to his injuries shortly after.

Authorities from the São Paulo Public Security Secretariat reported that the truck driver remained at the scene, called for help, and performed a breathalyzer test, which showed no alcohol consumption. This suggests that the driver may not have been at fault, but the investigation is still ongoing to establish the exact circumstances that led to the collision.

In the aftermath of the accident, the São Paulo Department of Highways announced that the highway had to be partially closed, forcing traffic to operate under a "stop and go" system in both directions. This incident highlights ongoing concerns about road safety and the need for measures to prevent similar tragedies, especially on busy highways that see a mix of heavy vehicles and motorcycles.
