A collective and a car collided in 9 de Julio and Santa Fe: both drivers to Fernández

A serious traffic accident occurred on Saturday morning at the intersection of Avenida 9 de Julio and Avenida Santa Fe in Buenos Aires, involving a Line 108 bus and a Volkswagen Gol. The collision caused severe damage to the car, requiring firefighters to extract the driver from the vehicle. Both drivers sustained multiple injuries and were transported to Fernandez Hospital by emergency medical services, with doctors suspecting a possible skull fracture for the car driver. The exact circumstances of the crash are under investigation, though it is noted that one vehicle likely ran a red light or attempted to pass during the final seconds of a yellow signal. The incident temporarily disrupted traffic until emergency crews cleared the scene.

A collision between a Volkswagen Gol sedan and a Line 108 bus injured two drivers at the intersection of Avenida 9 de Julio and Avenida Santa Fe in the Recoleta neighborhood of Buenos Aires on Saturday morning, October 24, 2026. Emergency services transported both men to Hospital Fernandez with multiple trauma injuries. Firefighters had to cut the driver of the car free from the vehicle’s cabin due to severe damage sustained in the impact. The accident occurred during the morning rush hour. Paramedics from the Metropolitan Emergency Medical Service arrived quickly and assessed the victims. They determined that both drivers required hospitalization for their polytrauma conditions. Medical staff at the receiving facility suspected the car driver suffered a possible skull fracture. Investigators are currently examining the circumstances of the crash. Given the location, authorities believe one vehicle likely ran a red light or attempted to clear the intersection during the final seconds of a yellow signal. Both vehicles struck a traffic light pole during the incident, knocking it down. The cars ended up resting on the sidewalk after the collision. Traffic flow through this central hub was disrupted while firefighters, police officers, and medical personnel worked at the scene. Normalcy returned to the busy corner by midday once emergency crews removed the wreckage. The specific causes remain under investigation, with local officials waiting for detailed reports from the hospital regarding the drivers' conditions.
