Playa del Carmen, Mexico — Residents of the Ejido neighborhood called for authorities' support after the driver of a truck, who failed to stop at a sign, was struck by a car and sent crashing into the wall of a house, causing significant property damage.
The severe accident was recorded at approximately 11:30 in the morning when the driver of a white Renault Kangoo truck was traveling on 6th Street and, upon reaching 110th Avenue, did not stop while heading west.
