Sh*t happens

Sh*t happens
Accident at the foot of Bolivia's highest mountain, Nevado Sajama (6542m).
Since Bolivia lost the province of Antofagasta and its access to the sea in the late 19th century Guerra del Pacífico, most freight goes from La Paz along Ruta 4 to the border at Tambo Quemado/ Chungará and down to the Chilean port of Arica.
Bolivia still has a Navy (on Lake Titicaca) and annually celebrates Día del Mar. Negotiations with Chile about a corridor the the sea drag along but have never come to a result.

Gerade Strecke, gute Übersicht, wahrscheinlich wenig Verkehr - und dann das.
Man glaubt es nicht, aber das soll vorkommen.
Haben wir in Australien auch schon vom Hören-Sagen vernommen...
Wie Du sagst: "Sh*t happens..."

Vielen Dank, Udo! Die Lastwagen fahren vom Hafen in Arica (Chile) auf über 4000 Meter hoch, die Fahrer sind oft übermüdet, haben gerade die Grenze/ Zoll hinter sich- naja.... Es ist die Hauptstrecke nach La Paz für Güterverkehr.
