The justice system is investigating the death of a 27-year-old woman who was run over by a bus belonging to Coniferal this Thursday. The traffic accident occurred around 14:30 at the intersection of 27 de Abril and Vélez Sársfield under very heavy rain. Agustina Pagliero died instantly after she was struck by a line 30 unit that was turning at that downtown corner.
The criminal investigation prosecutor's office charged the driver, Reynoso Jairo Javier, with the crime of aggravated involuntary manslaughter by motor vehicle. The initial expert reports indicate that the driver of the unit did not manage to brake in time while he was turning toward 27 de Abril Street. The driver was taken to the judicial headquarters for standard procedures and was subsequently released on his own recognizance.
The investigators are analyzing footage from a police dome camera that reportedly captured the exact moment of the fatal impact in the area. Eyewitnesses told the police that the victim was correctly crossing at the crosswalk at the time of the incident. The case is proceeding under the classification of involuntary manslaughter while the authorities await the final results of the accident investigation reports.

Concerning statistics and road safety
With this tragic episode, the number has already reached 3 pedestrians who have died in the province of Córdoba during the first 8 days of the year. The record of traffic accidents indicates that there were 2 other fatal cases in the provincial interior during the last week. The authorities are observing with concern the recurrence of accidents that involve the most vulnerable victims in the road system.
A 42-year-old man was struck on January 5 by a pickup truck on National Route 38 near Punilla. The second fatal case was recorded on January 2, when a man died after he was struck on Route S-210 near Atos Pampa in the valley. These incidents highlight the need to strengthen road safety education and compliance with traffic regulations throughout the local jurisdiction.
The statistical data reveal that during 2025, 21 pedestrians died in various traffic accidents throughout the province. The figure shows a decrease compared with 2024, when 33 pedestrian deaths were recorded in similar circumstances. However, the beginning of 2026 marks a negative trend that requires greater individual responsibility behind the wheel and attention on public roadways.

Urban transportation under judicial scrutiny
This new incident adds to a series of traffic incidents involving urban transportation units in recent times. The recent background includes collisions with private vehicles and other serious pedestrian knockdowns in the capital of Córdoba. The justice system will have to determine the corresponding criminal and civil liabilities in order to guarantee legal order in this case.
The year 2025 ended with a total of 353 people who died in crashes and rollovers on the highways and streets of the province of Córdoba. The annual average indicates that one life was lost every 24 hours due to preventable causes related to traffic. Road insecurity continues to be one of the main causes of non-natural death and requires urgent institutional solutions.
