No signs of braking, no attempt to get the truck back on the road: a sign that the driver was not conscious. The whole thing was later confirmed by his partner. "He called me and said he wasn't feeling well," Daria Yoita recalls, "and he told me he was so sick that he was going to lie down for a bit in the cabin bunk to recover. At that point I told him I would leave home, and I would meet him at the usual place where he parked the truck to pick him up and take him to the hospital to be checked out. And that's what I did." The woman reached the meeting place, but Mauro did not arrive. She waited a long time, she called several times, she also contacted her colleagues and friends. Then she heard the news of the tragedy.

Rome - A very serious accident occurred shortly after 4:00 p.m. today, August 13, on the Via Traiana between Colleferro and Segni. The driver of a Maserati hearse, with the deceased on board, lost control of the vehicle and violently collided with a Cotral bus traveling in the opposite direction. The head-on collision was so violent that the two occupants of the hearse (a man in his thirties and a 19-year-old) were airlifted – in red code and in danger of life – to a hospital in the capital. The bus driver is shocked. The passengers on board the public transport (7 people) suffered some bruises and will be checked with a green code at the Emergency Room of the Colleferro Hospital where they were transported by ambulance. From the latest news we learned that the two people on board the hearse were Federico Calcatelli – 34 years old, driving – and his cousin Lorenzo Lotto – 19 years old.
