From The Article:
From now on, when you Google “This is why we can’t have nice things,” a copy of this story should come up first. On January 27th, 2018, a truck driver ignored numerous warning signs and drove his semi-trailer over three of the 2,000-year-old geoglyphs better known to the world as the Nazca lines. Reports say that the truck made “deep scars” in the ground, causing severe and irreparable damage to the lines. What could have possessed him to do this?
From now on, when you Google “cheap truck drivers,” a copy of this story should come up first. According to Clarin, Jainer Jesús Flores Vigo claimed he was lost but actually drove off the Pan American highway at kilometer 424 to avoid paying a toll. The Peruvian Culture Ministry reported that the damaged area measured 50 by 100 meters ( (104 by 328 feet) and covered parts of three geoglyphs.
