Last update - 03:29 09/03/2008 4 killed in weekend road accidents, including mother, daughter By Jonathan Lis and Eli Ashkenazi Tags: Israel, car accidents  Four people were killed in accidents this weekend, including a mother and her daughter. Devorah Levenberg and her daughter Aliza, 2, were not wearing seat belts when the car in which they were traveling crashed head-on into another vehicle. The Levenbergs - Devorah, her husband Moshe, and Aliza - hitched a ride Friday morning from their home in Neveh Yaakov to central Jerusalem. The driver apparently took a curve on Uzi Narkiss Bridge, which connects Neveh Yaakov and Pisgat Ze'ev with Highway 1, too quickly, and slammed head-on into a car in the opposite lane. Advertisement Devorah and Aliza, who were sitting in the back seat, sustained massive injuries and died shortly after impact. Moshe Levenberg and the driver sustained moderate injuries. "The mother and daughter died immediately," Zohar Lomar, a Magen David Adom paramedic who arrived at the scene, said. "The father, whose injuries were moderate, was fully conscious the entire time. He spoke with us and didn't stop asking about his wife and daughter. We told him they were being treated by another MDA team. We tried to ask him what had happened, but he didn't remember anything about the accident," Lomar said. In another accident, at Etziona Junction near the Ela Valley, Esther Baba, 41, of Moshav Mesillat Tzion, was killed and three of her children were injured. The police believe her car collided with an oncoming vehicle when she tried to make an illegal left turn. On Friday night, a 32-year-old man from the Upper Galilee village of Tuba-Zangaria was killed when his car overturned on the Tuba-Rosh Pina road, near the Mahanayim airfield. The driver, who was alone in his car, apparently lost control of the vehicle and flipped while taking a sharp turn. Bookmark to del.icio.us   From Pyongyan with Love N.
