The accident occurred on a busy road in the popular holiday destination, where mopeds are a common mode of transport for tourists. Emergency services rushed to the scene, and the victim was airlifted to a nearby hospital for urgent treatment.
Local authorities are investigating the circumstances of the crash, but initial reports suggest that speed may have been a factor. Witnesses described the scene as "chaotic" and "terrifying," with the young man lying unconscious on the road.
