Two people injured in a series of accidents on the Sønderborg motorway

Two people were injured in multiple traffic accidents on the Sønderborg motorway in Denmark due to slippery conditions.

On Sunday evening, two individuals were injured in several traffic incidents on the Sønderborg motorway, located north of Kværs. The information was confirmed by the duty officer of the South and South Jutland Police to the news agency Ritzau. The police department provided updates on their service, Politi Update, detailing that multiple accidents occurred in the same area, exacerbated by slippery road conditions and drifting snow.

As a result of these accidents, the Sønderborg motorway has been closed in the direction of Sønderborg between exit 15 Søgaard and exit 14, as reported by local authorities. This closure reflects the ongoing hazardous driving conditions that have been impacting traffic flow and safety in the region. Authorities urge motorists to exercise caution during this adverse weather.

The incidents underscore the importance of safe driving practices during winter conditions in Denmark, where snow and ice can lead to dangerous road scenarios. The police have not only provided immediate updates on the situation but are also emphasizing the need for awareness among drivers to prevent further accidents as winter weather persists.
