Car rollover in Kuta blocks traffic

A car overturned on Jl. By Pass Ngurah Rai in Kuta on Sunday, causing traffic to thicken up. 

The car flipped over, after it reportedly crashed into a street light pole. 

A witness at the scene, Ardi, 28, told local newspaper Tribun Bali that the Daihatsu Xenia involved in the accident had been speeding from the south. 

“The car was speeding and swerved to right, cashing into a lamppost,” Ardi explained.

You can see from a photo posted to Bali citizen journalist site, Info Denpasar, that the pole fell into the middle of the road. 

Based on further information collected at the scene, the driver of the Xenia was allegedly drowsy and lost control of his speeding vehicle. 

Amazingly enough, there were no reported injuries from the accident.

“The victim was okay. He looked totally fine,” Ardi said.
