A terrible road recklessness was recorded by a user of the Norte highway, in the metropolitan area of Medellín (Antioquia), where a motorcyclist carried out several deadly maneuvers while driving at high speed along that road corridor.

On the Twitter account Denunciaciones Antioquia, which publishes news from that department on that social network, they uploaded a video showing how the reckless driver is chatting on his cell phone lying on the motorcycle in full motion.

Later, and seeing that it is being filmed, he performs other pirouettes such as continuing to lie on his car, although on one side it is seen how he has to recover the normal position of motorcyclists unexpectedly as he encounters more vehicular traffic in the area.

It should be remembered that these types of pirouettes are considered in the National Traffic Code as highly dangerous maneuvers and can result in up to a fine of 30 legal minimum daily wages in force, or almost one million pesos, as established in article 131 of the regulations.

They identify 11 of the 12 victims of the avalanche in Abriaqui

In other news from Antioquia, authorities identified 11 of the 12 deceased from an avalanche that occurred Wednesday night in the municipality of Abriaquí, where two other victims are still being searched and left nine others injured.
