Crash Details
Before 12:00 on Dec 11, a Ford towing a trailer, a Lexus and a Volvo collided on the S2 toward Konotop between A. Krakowska and the Opacz junction. The Lexus struck the reinforced concrete barriers on the left lane after the Ford’s trailer forced it off course, then hit the Volvo and the barriers.
Emergency Response

Both southbound lanes were closed, leaving only the emergency lane open. Drivers had to detour around the collision, creating significant slow‑downs and forming traffic jams on the S2 for several minutes.
