Road accident of 30 October 2026
On 30 October 2026, shortly after 11 a.m., a head-on collision between a Ford Fiesta and a Jeep Compass occurred along the SP 138 in the Cercenasco area [1][2]. Piero Allasino, a 72-year-old farmer resident in Rivasecca di Buriasco, died in the impact; he was driving the Ford Fiesta, which ended up in the bealera (irrigation ditch) running alongside the road after the crash [1]. The driver of the Jeep, a 23-year-old man resident in Pinerolo, suffered minor injuries and was taken to Pinerolo hospital with a green-code (non-urgent) triage rating [1][2].
The Azienda Zero air ambulance service, firefighters with the Drago helicopter, and Carabinieri from the Vigone and None stations, tasked with reconstructing the dynamics of the crash, responded to the scene [1]. According to initial findings, the Jeep, which was travelling towards Buriasco, may have crossed into the opposite lane, colliding with the car carrying the farmer, who was travelling towards Cercenasco [1].
