Four persons met their untimely death on Thursday evening on the Akosombo-Kpong highway in a severe collision.

According to TV3's Eastern Regional Correspondent, the accident occurred about 7:00pm, when an Accra-bound Hyundai vehicle with registration number GT-3248 -14, run into an immobile tipper truck with registration number WR 706-Z.

The four persons died of severe injuries on the spot in the mangled vehicle.

Several others are also receiving treatment at the Akosombo Hospital.

Stationary vehicles have been blamed for most accidents particularly at night, but the practice still continues with very little effort made to tow broken down vehicles from the road.

Many lives have been lost through road accidents across the country even before figures are collated for the second quarter of 2015.
