A Jeep Renegade and a Kia Sportage were involved in the collision, according to the fire service, which responded to the incident on the northern highway. The two drivers involved in the accident received minor injuries and managed to get out of the cars before the flames started.

Videos circulating on social media show the cars in a horror movie-worthy scenario, where two cars are completely destroyed by flames still on the pavement.

The track was off-limits until firefighters put out the flames and removed what was left of the two cars.

The flow of traffic deviated along the secondary lane, but even so there were queues about 2 kilometers long.
