Police suspect a crime in the Liminka collision – what is now known about the accident

A collision involving a car, a truck, and a lorry in Liminka has led police to suspect the driver of the car of endangering traffic safety.

On Monday, a serious traffic accident occurred on Road Number 4 in Liminka, involving a private car, a delivery truck, and a lorry. Initial investigations have led police to suspect the driver of the private car, born in the 2000s, of endangering traffic safety. Both the driver and a passenger in the car sustained injuries from the collision, highlighting the severity of the incident.

The sequence of events began when the truck driver was making a right turn off Road Number 4 onto Haurunkyläntie. After the collision, they continued on their way, not realizing the full extent of the incident at first. The private car, after hitting the truck, veered into the oncoming lane and collided with an approaching lorry. This violent impact caused the private car to rebound back into its own lane, confirming the chaotic nature of the accident.

This situation raises concerns about road safety and vigilant driving in the area. The police are continuing their investigation into the incident, emphasizing the importance of responsible driving behaviors, particularly among younger drivers, as they pursue the facts surrounding this troubling collision.
