Cali Intersection's Broken Traffic Lights Spark Safety Concerns
Damaged Traffic Signals and Lack of Control at Cali Intersection Raise Safety Concerns Cali, Colombia – A recent video circulating on social media highlights a concerning situation at the intersection of Autopista Sur and Carrera 39 in Cali. The short video, filmed on June 7th, shows several damaged traffic lights and a noticeable absence of traffic control personnel. The narrator, speaking in Spanish, states, "Señores, buenas tardes. Autopista Sur con Carrera 39. Totalmente semaforos dañados, fuera de servicio." (Gentlemen, good afternoon. Autopista Sur with Carrera 39. Completely damaged traffic lights, out of service.) This lack of functioning traffic signals creates a hazardous environment for drivers and pedestrians alike, increasing the risk of accidents. The video itself doesn't show any accidents, but the potential for such incidents is clear. Local authorities have yet to comment on the situation, but the video serves as a call for improved safety measures at this busy intersection. The timely repair of the traffic lights and the implementation of additional traffic control measures are crucial to ensure the safety of Cali's citizens.
