A motorcyclist riding on the sidewalk of Costanera Norte in Asunción violently crashed into a traffic signpost on Tuesday night. The accident occurred about 200 meters from the roundabout with Avenida General Santos and was captured by security cameras.
The footage shows the motorcyclist traveling at high speed on the sidewalk until hitting the sign indicating a 50 km/h speed limit. The impact threw him onto the asphalt. When National Police officers arrived at the scene, the rider was already standing next to the motorcycle. He asked others for help to remove the vehicle from the site and then left. No one else was injured.
