Heavy snowfall in Indiana has caused a collision involving about 45 vehicles on a key highway, causing the westbound lanes of I-70 to be completely closed and temporarily restricted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is reported by NBC<\/a> .<\/p>\n

It is noted that the accident occurred on the I-70 interstate near the 15-mile mark, about 10 miles from the city of Terre Haute, Indiana.<\/p>\n

Footage from the Department of Transportation’s surveillance cameras showed numerous vehicles scattered across the roadway. Some of the cars had pulled onto the side of the road and grassy areas.<\/p>\n

Indiana State Police spokesman Matt Ames said the main collision occurred in the westbound direction, but vehicles were also seen leaving the road in the eastbound direction.<\/p>\n

“People need to drive smart during snowfall \u2013 slow down, buckle up and be careful,” said Matt Ames.<\/p>\n

According to preliminary data, 20 to 30 vehicles were involved in the accident, but this number was later revised to 45. There is no information about serious injuries. <\/p>\n

The westbound lanes of I-70 are completely closed after the collision. Police estimate the closure could last for about 6 hours. <\/p>\n

The US National Weather Service is predicting 1 to 4 inches of snow and wind gusts of up to 35 miles per hour, making road conditions difficult throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Recall that a large-scale road accident occurred in Herat province in western Afghanistan<\/a> , killing at least 79 people, including 17 children. Most of the dead were on a bus carrying Afghan migrants deported from Iran.<\/p>\n
