New Delhi: At least two people died and several others were injured when 12 cars crashed into a stationary truck on the Lucknow-Agra Expressway in the early hours of Thursday.

The truck was reportedly parked after a breakdown and dense fog resulted in the cars behind not seeing it in time. While many managed to steer clear, several others crashed into the parked truck.

Low visibility has resulted in numerous accidents across expressways in the state. On December 2, four people, including an Italian man, were injured when their cars collided on the Yamuna Expressway. On December 18, ten cars were involved in a nightmarish pileup near Bangarmau in Unnao district. Several passengers were injured in the accident.
