Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo — A taxi was left heavily damaged after a Nissan pickup truck ran a stop sign and slammed into it in the Pescadores 2 neighborhood, according to authorities.
The crash occurred at the intersection of Avenidas Chi and Sur. The taxi belonged to the Lázaro Cárdenas del Río taxi union.
Witnesses said the pickup driver ignored the stop sign on one of the area’s roadways, causing the collision against the public transport vehicle.
