Terrifying new dashcam footage shows moment doomed NBC helicopter falls out of the sky The terrifying moment an NBC helicopter fell out of the sky and plunged into the ground near where an SUV had slammed into a Metro bus was caught on dashcam. The video, obtained by KTLA, shows the helicopter descending, caught from afar on the vehicle camera of Yera Valencia. She said: “I downloaded the video of my dashcam. It’s a little dot on the video. It’s a crisp video and it just goes down.” She added: “God, it’s so close, it could have happened to anyone. My parents walk down the street.” The two back-to-back Tuesday night crashes resulted in five deaths — two involving the bus and SUV, and three as a result of the chopper going down, killing reporter Eliana Moreno, pilot George Marciniw and pedestrian Edy Gutierrez Mejia.
Today tuesday,the Governor of Ambode said during the commissioning of Ojodu Berger Pedestrian Bridges etc,stated categorically that he has asked the Vehicle Inspection Officers {VIO} to stay off the roads permanently.The Governor also also urged the Federal Road Safety Corps,FRSC,to limit its operations to the fringes and highways and stay clear from the main streets of the state.He said the decisions were in line with his administration's resolve to ensure free flow of traffic across Lagos,noting that their activities were contributing to traffic congestion on Lagos roads.''Distinguished ladies and getlemen,let me use this opportunity to reiterate that Vehicle Inspection Officers {VIO} have been asked to stay off our roads permanently,''Mr Ambode began at the event.''We also advice the Federal Road Safety Corps to stay on the fringes and highways and not on the main streets of Lagos.It has become evident that these agencies contribute to the traffic challenges on our roads''.The Governor further said that as an alternative,the state government would employ technology to track and monitor vehicle registration and MOT certifications and de-emphasise impoundment of vehicles on the roads.What we set out to achieve with this project was to ensure smooth flow of traffic along the express,safeguard the lives of our people who had to run across the express and project the image of a truly global city to our visitors.Today,we are delighted that we have not only succeeded in transforming the landscape of this axis but with the slip road,lay bys and pedestrian bridge,we have given a new and pleasant experience to all entering and existing our State.This project is the product of our innovative team of engineers,architects and town planners who have worked hard to create an innovative solution to tackle the challenges of this axis.I say a big thank you to the staff of the Lagos State Ministry of Works and the contractors-CCECC Nigeria Limited for a job well done'',he said.
