A Scary Morning but No Tragedy in Belgrano

The morning of July 20, 2026, started with a traffic incident in the Belgrano neighborhood of Buenos Aires, but luck was on the side of those involved. At the intersection of Avenida Crámer and Blanco Encalada, a multi-car crash left four vehicles with material damage and four people with minor injuries. All of them are out of danger and were quickly assisted by emergency personnel.

How Did the Crash Happen?

According to Infobae, the incident involved four cars: a Renault Sandero, a Citroën C3, a Peugeot 308, and a Honda Fit. The driver of the Peugeot 308 reportedly rear-ended the vehicles that were stopped at a traffic light, causing a chain reaction that ended with the Sandero hitting a parked Honda Fit.

The Touching Story of Miguel, the Affected Driver

Beyond the material damage, there is a story of effort and hope. Miguel Ernesto Renda, the driver of the red Citroën C3, shared his situation with América TV. This former bus driver of line 181 (a public bus route in Buenos Aires), where he worked for 35 years without suffering major accidents, had resigned on June 1, 2026, to start a new path as a remisero (a driver of a private hire car service, very common in Argentina) while waiting for his retirement.

With only a few hours into his work shift that July 20 at 5:45 AM, the crash interrupted his immediate plans. His greatest wish is to pay off the car so he can move and reunite with his wife and his 7-year-old daughter, who live in Paraguay. Although the accident will delay his plans for a few months, Miguel keeps his dream alive of working again soon to fulfill his goal of family reunification.

Despite the bad moment, the outcome is highly positive as it was confirmed that there are no serious injuries and that the emergency services acted in an exemplary manner to ensure everyone's safety on the public road.
