The nationalist senator Sergio Botana suffered a car accident along with his driver on the way to Vichadero, Rivera, for a campaign event in defense of the Law of Urgent Consideration (LUC), reported Underlined (Channel 10) and confirmed from the surroundings of the legislator to The Observer.
The incident occurred this morning, on a road that is under repair and therefore has a lot of “loose soil,” explained the sources consulted. The accident occurred due to an oversight, and ended with the car several meters from the road.
Both Botana and his driver did not have any serious injuries and the legislator is already at the Vichadero act, said people close to the senator and shared a photo of the legislator at the event. The car’s airbag activated and the senator barely had a few “bruises” on his face.
