Norway sees two separate road accidents on E39 and in Skien

A truck on the E39 highway between Grodås and Kjøs bru lost control, crossed into the opposite lane and ended up in a ditch. No other vehicles were involved, and authorities noted that a collision with oncoming traffic could have been fatal. The incident caused significant material damage and a temporary road closure while investigations continue.

In Skien, a car veered into a ditch on Løbergvegen, coming to rest partially on its roof. Three occupants were treated for minor injuries by ambulance crews. Police and fire services responded to both scenes, confirming that the injuries were not severe and that traffic flow was restored after the incidents.
