In an unfortunate incident that occurred this Thursday, a driver of a vehicle ran over a mother and her two children while they were on their way to the Gerbert school in Orlhac. The accident took place shortly before nine in the morning at the pedestrian crossing located on Josep Carner Street, on the route that many families follow to get to school.

Dangerousness of Josep Carner Street
The president of the school families, Esther Nieto, has denounced the danger of Josep Carner Street, where the accident occurred. According to Nieto, this road lacks obstacles to prevent vehicles from traveling at high speeds, which represents a risk for pedestrians. The families have asked the City Council to assign a local police officer to regulate traffic during school entry and exit times.
Need for security measures
The families of the Gerbert school in Orlhac have expressed their concern about the lack of security measures on Josep Carner street. According to them, other schools have obstacles to reduce the speed of vehicles, but their school does not. Given this incident, they consider the presence of a local police officer to regulate traffic and guarantee the safety of students and their families even more urgent.
In short, a driver hit a mother and her two children at the Gerbert school in Orlhac, causing injuries to the family. Local police are investigating the incident and searching for the driver, who fled the scene. The school families have highlighted the danger of Josep Carner Street and have requested additional security measures, such as the presence of a traffic officer.
