The driver who caused the accident on the viaduct in February when the two girls were driving home in their Volvo was sentenced to three years and six months in prison. However, he was given probation for one year and six months. As a result of the accident, Marcela Palady was seriously injured and lost both of her legs when their car was pushed from behind by a Volkswagen. The girls set off their emergency alarms and got out of their car to set up a stop sign. At that time, a BMW crashed into their car, and Marcella was sandwiched between the two cars. Now her family needs help from citizens to pay for costly rehabilitation.
The driver is also banned from driving for three years.
Begu himself was absent during today’s hearing.
