Police have uncovered dramatic details of the tunnel accident.

A serious traffic accident occurred in the Pletovarje tunnel on Saturday, involving multiple vehicles. According to police reports, the cause was the driver of a truck failing to adjust their speed appropriately. The truck overtook a column of vehicles moving at significantly reduced speeds, some of which had already stopped. After colliding with the last vehicle in the column, the truck pushed it forward into two other vehicles. One person sustained minor injuries. Police confirmed that ten people were involved in the incident, including children. The accident caused significant traffic disruptions on the Štajerska motorway, leading to closures in both directions for a period of time. Authorities noted that the slow-moving traffic in the tunnel was due to ongoing roadwork, but emphasized that stopping in tunnels is illegal and carries fines.
