"The most awesome of these accidents was the one that took place..." Hmm they should really have used a better term there!
It is not shocking though, it is well known the roads to the interior are quite dangerous, whenever I talk to any of my friends who are their village they say how awesome it is to drive 160k/s or above...

Exactly the same impression I got after reading this report.
Probably, they meant 'aweful' not 'awesome'.
These are the wonders of Arabic to English translation!
