Such an accident can not only unsettle the guests, but also the local residents and affect trust in the safety of the streets. The mourning for the deceased vacationer shows how vulnerable we are in road traffic.
The 27-year-old tractor driver remained physically intact, but it is expected that this incident was also psychologically stressful for him.

Such incidents illustrate the need for increased safety consciousness in road traffic, especially in touristy -frequented areas.
