Today (2nd) around 9:50 am, an accident occurred in which a trailer vehicle loaded with a large tank lorry overturned on the Cheonan-Nonsan Expressway in Nonsan-si, Chungcheongnam-do.
It is estimated that the accident occurred near the Yeonmu Interchange in the direction of Cheonan, when a trailer vehicle that was ahead collided with a guard rail and overturned.
In the accident, the trailer driver A and the passenger B, the passenger of the car that followed, suffered minor injuries and were taken to a nearby hospital.

In addition, as the tank lorry fell horizontally, all lanes toward Cheonan were blocked, resulting in severe congestion for about 4 hours and 30 minutes.
It is known that the trailer moved to the shoulder around the accident site around 1 pm on the same day, and the vehicle congestion has been gradually resolved since then.
The police plan to investigate the exact circumstances of the accident against the drivers of the accident vehicle as soon as the investigation is completed.
