A minor traffic accident involving two vehicles from the motorcade of Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković took place recently in Savska street. The incident reportedly occurred when the lead vehicle in the convoy encountered separators designed to protect a tram corridor.

Eyewitness accounts from readers, along with photographic evidence from the scene, suggest that the collision happened as the government limousines navigated the area. The specifics of the impact and any potential damage to the vehicles were not immediately detailed, but the event disrupted traffic flow.

This incident highlights potential challenges or oversights in motorcade route planning, particularly in urban environments with existing infrastructure like tram lines. The presence of separators, while crucial for public transport safety, can pose a hazard to large vehicles if not properly accounted for during convoy movements.
