About 6:30 I was trying to drive up to Loreto from La Paz. 60km outside La Paz I came across what looked like a pretty serious accident involving a
bus. There were about 20 cars/trucks in front of me so I didn't see the details, but after waiting a few minutes, the rescue squad and police started
to show up.
The truckers told me it would be hours before we could get through since the accident was pretty bad, so I turned around and headed back to La Paz.
I saw 6 more ambulances heading to the scene as I drove back. In La Paz someone told me Hwy 1 was closed and that there were at least 3 dead, many
injured, and some big-wig politician was involved.elgatoloco - 6-11-2013 at 10:20 PM
