Brazil records two multi‑vehicle traffic collisions with no injuries

A Mercedes‑Benz gas‑tanker crashed through a red light in Joaçaba, Santa Catarina, colliding with a Munck truck and subsequently striking three passenger cars, including a Hyundai HB20, a GM Spin and a GM Spark. The impact detached the Munck truck’s axle, but the gas load did not leak and no one was injured.

In Ivaiporã, Paraná, a GM Classic driven by a woman and a VW Fox driven by a man collided at the junction of Rua Marechal Deodoro da Fonseca and Rua Visconde do Rio Branco. Both drivers refused medical care, reporting no serious injuries, and the vehicles were later towed away.
