A severe snowstorm has caused multiple accidents across Sweden, with the E4 highway near Huskvarna being a major hotspot.
On Monday afternoon, a truck crashed into the median barrier, spilling diesel and blocking traffic in both directions.
The road was reopened by 9:30 PM after swift cleanup efforts.
Fortunately, the driver was unharmed.
The Swedish Transport Administration warns of hazardous road conditions as temperatures rise and refreeze, creating icy surfaces.
Several other accidents, including a truck overturning and car collisions, were reported in the region.
Authorities urge drivers to exercise caution as plows and salt trucks work to mitigate the risks.
