Six people were killed and two others injured when a bus and a pick-up truck collided head-on in Brazil’s Sao Paulo state, the federal highway patrol said Tuesday.

The accident occurred on federal highway BR-153 in Lins, a city located about 430 kilometers (267 miles) north of Sao Paulo, the state capital.

The driver of the bus, which was not carrying any passengers, was killed along with five of the people riding in the pick-up truck, all of them employees of the company that provides maintenance services for the highway.

This is the second serious accident this week on Brazilian highways.
