The BMW in which the two girls died was trying to overtake on a road with a speed limit of 50 km/h
There are still many shadows on the dynamics of the accident in which they lost their lives the nineteen Eralda Spahillari and Barbara Brotto aged 17, the two girls who died in the night between Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 March 2023 in Gorgo al Monticano, in the province of Treviso. According to the reconstructions made by the investigators, it remains to be clarified with precision the role played by the driver of the white Volkswagen Polo and the other two boys and a girl who were with him in the car.
The speed and suspicion of the race
—
The accident took place in via Sant’Antonio di Gorgo al Monticano, where the speed limit is 50 km/h, but apparently the boys were traveling at a speed of 140 km/h, a good 90 over the limit. The BMW 420 was driven by a nineteen year old from Pravisdomini, Eralda’s fiance, who had borrowed his father’s car and is now hospitalized in the Ca’ Foncello hospital in Treviso in danger of his life. Also on board was the Barbara’s boyfriend, eighteen years old from Motta di Livenza, also now hospitalized in Mestre in serious condition. The BMW he would have attempted to overtake the Polo, but it seems that, after a slight contact, she would have gone off the road, crashing into a tree. Precisely this overtaking at 140 km/h led the investigators to evaluate the hypothesis that a race was underway between the two cars.
Prosecutor’s confirmation and traces of alcohol in the blood
—
This version was also confirmed by the Prosecutor of the Republic of Treviso Marco Martani, who explained: “The two drivers were tested for drink driving and drug use. But many doubts weigh on the alcohol test done on the driver of the Polo, given that it took place several hours after the crash”. For this reason, therefore, the driver of the Polo and the other passengers weigh thecharge of negligence that the deputy prosecutor Gabriella Cama would be evaluating.
The call for help
—
When help arrived on the spot, the white Polo was gone. According to the testimony of a resident, the four boys would have initially stopped and would have called by name the two girls and the boy who were in the BMW but would have left immediately after. The call to Suem 118 would have come from them. For this reason, therefore, the question is: why didn’t the kids stop and wait for help? One of the hypotheses of the prosecutor’s office is linked to the fact that the young man driving had been drinking and therefore feared that he was over the permitted alcohol limit. So, in a panic he would have decided to leave.
TikTok video “No need to rush”
—
On TikTok Barbara Brotto had published a video which, looking at it now, seems almost premonitory. The girl was sharing the day in the car with her boyfriend with her followers and on the images of him driving she had inserted an animation that said “No need to rush”. Then the video ended with the two boys getting out of the car, embracing each other.
Now the kinematic report ordered by the Public Prosecutor
—
There are no surveillance cameras on via Sant’Antonino. Now the prosecutor has ordered one cinematic expertise to try to accurately reconstruct the dynamics of the accident. At the moment the two drivers with are registered in the register of suspects the hypothesis of the crime of vehicular homicidebut for the driver of the Polo and the passengers of his car could also come a charge of failure to help.
