On the M7 highway, in the area of Lake Velence, visibility is poor in many places, and the length of the visible road section may drop below 100 meters in some places, reports Útinform.
There was a serious accident at km 45, which is why traffic is being diverted on the side towards the capital at Pákozd at km 50, and at the Martonvásár exit at km 30 in the direction of Letenye.
If you can, you can take highway 7 towards Budapest by turning off at the Székesfehérvár-kelet/Gárdony/Agárd intersection at km 57. Drive with increased attention and keep a greater following distance, warns Útinform.
According to the information of the Fejér County Police Headquarters, several separate traffic accidents occurred on Sunday morning in the 44th kilometer section of the M7 highway in the area of Venice, presumably due to poor visibility due to the dense fog, reports MTI.
Dozens of vehicles were involved in the accidents. The police are conducting the scene investigation and technical rescue with a complete road closure. The congestion is several kilometers long in both directions, they wrote.
Cars ran into each other on both sides of the highway at several locations. On the side leading to Lake Balaton, near Pázmánd, several cars ran into each other at two locations. On the side leading to the capital, in the area of Pákozd, quite a few accidents occurred on a stretch of several hundred meters, the disaster management announced.
The swarms take turns disconnecting the power from the vehicles involved in the accidents and the ambulances are also at the scene of the accidents, they added.
Pál Győrfi, the communications manager of the National Ambulance Service, confirmed MTI’s information and said that several rescue units, including a rescue helicopter, arrived at the scene of the accident, and the rescue and treatment of the injured is ongoing.
