Two people have been killed and more than 60 injured in a crash involving about 100 vehicles in foggy weather on a bridge near South Korea’s Incheon International Airport.
The multiple collision on Wednesday occurred in heavy fog on the Seoul-bound lane of a bridge that forms part of the main expressway linking Incheon airport with the capital.
The pile-up appeared to have been started when a limousine ran into the back of a car, an Incheon police station spokesman said.
“More than 100 vehicles were involved,” he said, adding that the foggy conditions meant drivers could only see 15 metres in front of them.
TV footage showed emergency rescue workers trying to access the mass of twisted and crumpled wrecks on the fog-covered bridge.
The fog delayed the departure of 18 flights and the arrival of seven flights during the morning, airport spokesman Cho Sang-hyun said.
South Korea experienced a similar accident in 2006 when a 29-car pile-up in foggy weather at another bridge left 11 people dead and more than 50 injured.
