State of Mexico.- This Wednesday, November 20, a multiple collision occurred on the Mexico-Querétaro Highway, at kilometer 059+000 in Huehuetoca, State of Mexico. The accident involved a semi-trailer that, after failing to stop in time, collided with several vehicles. As a result, the vehicle became cross-country, occupying all three north-south lanes of traffic, causing a partial closure of the highway.Causes of the Accident and Traffic ConditionsThe incident occurred as the trailer was traveling toward Mexico City. Failing to brake in time before the Jorobas intersection, the driver crashed into a bank and then hit five cars and a pickup truck. Due to the wet road conditions caused by the day's rain, it is suspected that road conditions may have played a role in the accident, although authorities will investigate the cause.Injuries and safety recommendationsParamedics arrived at the scene to treat the injured, who had minor injuries. Although no serious injuries were reported, paramedics recommended that some be checked out at the hospital to avoid possible complications.Trailer spills fuel in another accidentIn a similar incident on the same highway, a tanker trailer spilled fuel at kilometer 95.5, near Soyaniquilpan de Juárez.
