Container truck crashes into vehicles on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway

A 40-foot container-laden truck crashed into other vehicles at the Kara Bridge exit on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway due to brake failure. The Lagos State Traffic Management Agency reported the incident, urging motorists to be patient while recovery and evacuation efforts were underway. The crash caused a traffic backlog extending to New Garage, and additional crashes were reported on the Kara Bridge inward Mowe, where a loaded trailer collided with an SUV.

Police and officers were deployed to manage the situation and facilitate the clearance of the affected vehicles. The agency appealed to motorists to remain patient as all hands were on deck to restore normal traffic flow.
