Fuel tanker crashes on Accra-Tema Motorway

About 200 meters before the toll gate at the Accra end of the Accra-Tema motorway, an oil tanker crashed this morning, May 12, pouring petroleum onto the road.

Although the exact cause of the truck’s pod tipping over is unknown, the spilling has left that section of the length slick, endangering pedestrians and drivers and increasing traffic.
