      The driver of the Mitsubishi Outlander, a man born in 1977 with 31 years of driving experience, explained that the boy suddenly ran onto the roadway from behind a moving truck, from left to right in the direction of the vehicle's movement. He explained to the police that he had no technical ability to prevent the collision, as he did not see the child due to the oncoming flow of vehicles and the limited visibility created by the large vehicle.
