Pangandaran News, (harapanrakyat.com),- A box car carrying mineral water fell into a 4-meter deep ravine as a result of crossing the Guha Walet incline road, Palubungan Hamlet, Cigugur Village, Cigugur District, Pangandaran Regency, West Java, Thursday (10/06/2021).
Maman, one of the eyewitnesses, said that the box car loaded with mineral water came from the direction of Parigi to Langkalir. However, when it reached the Guha Walet ascent road, the box car with the police number B 9265 NI backed away again. Then fell into the abyss.
“It’s possible that the boxcar couldn’t climb up because it was overloaded, so it fell into a four-meter-deep ravine,” he said.

Although the driver of the box car carrying mineral water, named Andi, was not seriously injured, he was only in shock. But Andi was still taken to the Cigugur Health Center for medical treatment.
According to Maman, the incline is not too long. However, because the road conditions turn so it is quite prone to accidents.
“I suggest to motorists, especially those who are not used to passing this road, to be more careful. Try not to carry excessive loads so that things don’t happen that we don’t expect,” he added.
To facilitate evacuation from the ravine, the cargo of the boxcar had to be unloaded and transferred to another car. (Cenk/R3/HR-Online)
