In addition, a teen girl and a young woman were injured and admitted to the Emergency Center, Telegraf.rs has learned.

The body of the driver has been sent for an autopsy by order of the prosecutor's office.

According to information available to us, three vehicles - a Citroen, a Punto, and a Mazda participated in the horrific accident.

"Yesterday (Sunday), just before 18:00 hours, a traffic accident occurred in the (Belgrade) municipality of Cukarica when one person was killed. Due to speeding, one vehicle collided with another that was moving in front of it, forcing it to swerve into the opposite lane, after which the vehicle hit a traffic light pole, killing the 20-year-old driver," the Traffic Police Administration told Telegraf.rs.

A 16-year-old and a 21-year-old woman were injured and rushed to the hospital.

An ambulance crew dispatched to the scene was only able to pronounce the young man dead.

"We are appealing on young people and everyone else to understand the responsibility and seriousness of participating in traffic, and the high risk that certain offenses will result in traffic accidents and casualties," the police said, and added:

"During the previous seven days, the traffic police increased the intensity of checks, primarily aimed at detecting speeding, but it is necessary for each participant in traffic to adopt the correct attitude and behave safely. Reduce and adjust your vehicle's speed, especially in residential areas, because situations often occur that require sudden braking or the need to react quickly."
