There was an accident on Thursday morning involving a truck and a car on the Luiz de Queiroz Highway (SP-304) at kilometer 130 in Americana, São Paulo. The collision led to the closure of one lane heading towards the Bandeirantes, causing significant traffic congestion in the area. According to reports from the Department of Road Maintenance (DER), approximately 600 meters of traffic buildup was recorded following the incident.

Fortunately, no injuries were reported as a result of the accident. The authorities responded quickly to the scene, and the highway was cleared after the truck and car were removed to the median. This efficient action allowed for the resumption of normal traffic flow shortly thereafter, avoiding prolonged disruption for commuters.

The incident highlights the potential for traffic disruptions caused by vehicle accidents on major highways, especially during peak hours. While the immediate response was effective in minimizing the impact on traffic, it serves as a reminder for drivers to remain vigilant and cautious on the roads to prevent such accidents from occurring in the future.
