Car overturns on A2 motorway near Lamezia Terme

A car overturned on the A2 Mediterranean motorway near the Lamezia Terme junction while traveling southbound. The accident occurred during an intense thunderstorm that had been affecting the area since early morning, potentially reducing visibility and making the road surface slippery.

Preliminary reports suggest the vehicle was traveling behind a bus when it suddenly swerved, struck the safety barriers, and flipped onto the roadway. The driver, who was the sole occupant of the car, sustained injuries in the impact. Emergency medical services, Carabinieri, State Police, and Anas personnel responded to the scene.

The driver was transported to the hospital in Lamezia Terme, where they remain under observation. Current reports indicate that their condition is not life-threatening. Authorities are continuing to investigate the exact dynamics of the crash to determine if the severe weather was the primary cause.
