The cabin of the car was destroyed, but fortunately the driver was not injured, Arteris Litoral Sul said. According to the highway concessionaire, the truck was empty.
Due to the accident, the lane towards Curitiba was partially blocked. Only the left lane was cleared for vehicular traffic, and two-kilometer queues formed on the site.
Around noon, the lane towards Curitiba was completely cleared, and the flow of vehicles had already returned to normal.
