A quad accident occurred on a farm in the village of Vaulandry, located within the delegated commune of Baugé-en-Anjou in the northeast of the department of Maine-et-Loire, on Tuesday, September 15. A 16-year-old teenager lost their life in the incident. The accident took place shortly after 5:30 p.m., a time when many rural residents are returning from work or school. The young person was riding a quad, a type of all-terrain vehicle commonly used on farms and in rural areas for transportation or recreation. These vehicles are often less regulated than cars and can be more dangerous if not operated carefully. The teenager was not alone at the time of the accident; their brother was with them and also suffered injuries. Local authorities were quickly alerted to the incident, and emergency services arrived at the scene to provide assistance. The injured brother was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment, though the extent of his injuries has not been disclosed. The teenager who died was pronounced dead at the scene. The incident has raised concerns among local residents about the safety of using quads on farms, especially by younger individuals. While quads can be useful tools on agricultural land, they require proper training and caution to prevent accidents. The community is now waiting for an official investigation into the circumstances surrounding the accident.
