A Saudi family was killed in a horrific collision that took place in Al Arda governorate in Saudi Arabia.

The accident occured on the road linking the governorate and Al Khouba.

According to a report in local daily Sabq, the accident claimed the life of a Saudi man, his wife and their daughter.

The road on which the accident occurred is of only one lane so motorist usually drive at high speed on it.

Most of the accident on such roads occur due to the entry of vehicles from secondary roads, which collide with vehicles coming from the main road.

It is reported that last week also a similar tragic accident occurred, resulting in the death of a young man and the injury of his brother, who was transferred to intensive care unit.

Authorities have called upon motorists to exercise caution, reduce speeds, and not use mobile phones to avoid fatal accidents.
