On Tuesday evening, around 7 PM, a car accident occurred in Hattula when a vehicle lost control and went off the road. The incident, as reported by the rescue services, involved a personal car that went through barriers on Highway 3 and ended up overturned in an underpass leading to Rannikontie. Rescuers managed to assist three individuals trapped inside the vehicle, and all were subsequently transported to a hospital for treatment.
