According to a witness, the driver in his sixties, who was alone on board, seemed to have been dried behind the wheel before killing.
His vehicle has suffered significant damage, so that the delicacy pliers were necessary to extricate the victim from the car.
The sixty -year -old was transported urgently to hospital with injuries that do not put her life in danger.
