«Guitar enthusiast, always ready with a joke, a good and humble person».
In the words of the president of the North Sardinia Flag, Benedetto Sechi, the moving memory of Sandro Ascione, the 65-year-old driver from Porto Torres who died this morning on the Sassari-Alghero four-lane road. The truck he was traveling on, for reasons yet to be ascertained, crashed at kilometer 9, not far from the Bancali crossroads.
«He had always wanted to be a truck driver, - added Sechi - he had obtained the licenses to be able to drive heavy vehicles, a highly experienced driver who was preparing to leave work. He was preparing his pension documents."
This morning that dream vanished. The 118 health workers attempted to resuscitate him for over 40 minutes. But the truck driver's heart stopped beating. Ascione worked for a Lap Logistic company and transported quarry material. “Let me tell you: life is unfair to the righteous,” we read on social media. He got married in 2021 and was due to retire on December 31.
