A victim in very serious condition
The two young people fell heavily but the motorist did not stop and fled.

A fatal accident exactly a month ago
Exactly one month ago, on the night of September 30 to October 1, a scooter accident at the Choulans-Macchabées intersection (Lyon 5th) claimed the life of a young Korean student, who died four days later in hospital.
Another terrible scooter accident remains on everyone’s minds in Lyon. Two years ago, Iris and Warren, on August 22, 2022, aged 15 and 17, lost their lives on Quai Maréchal-Joffre (Lyon 2nd), hit by a private ambulance.
Since then, the families of the two teenagers have regularly spoken out to demand better security of the axis.
