Investigated a driver for an alleged crime against road safety when making two reckless overtaking
The investigated driver carried out two overtaking maneuvers despite observing that a vehicle was circulating in the opposite direction, forcing both the vehicle ahead and the one circulating in the opposite direction to stop.
All this in a section configured in a closed curve without visibility, whose maximum speed was 40 km / h, with the road wet and without the vehicles having any escape since the left margin is delimited by a rocky slope, and the right margin by a concrete wall
