A 22-year-old taxi driver has passed away following a horrific accident in Nasinu last night.

Police say the man while driving towards Nausori allegedly failed to stop at the Kalokalo Crescent traffic lights, where his vehicle hit another vehicle driven by a 22-year-old who was making a right turn into Kalokalo Crescent.

They say due to the impact of the collision, the man’s vehicle tumbled several times.

He was rushed to the Valelevu Health Centre but was unfortunately pronounced dead on arrival.

The national road death toll currently stands at 23 compared to 9 for the same period last year.
