On Wednesday, November 20, a trailer truck lost control on the Mexico-Querétaro Highway near Huehuetoca, crashing into multiple vehicles and blocking all three north-south lanes. The collision, which occurred at kilometer 59, involved five cars and a pickup truck. Authorities believe wet roads from recent rain may have played a role, though the cause is still under investigation.

The truck had been heading toward Mexico City when it first struck a bank and then the other vehicles. Paramedics arrived quickly and treated several people for minor injuries; no serious injuries were reported, though some were advised to seek hospital evaluation as a precaution.

The crash caused major traffic delays due to the blocked lanes. Compounding the disruption, a separate incident at kilometer 95.5 near Soyaniquilpan de Juárez involved a fuel spill from a tanker trailer, leading to a full closure of that stretch of highway.

Authorities are urging drivers to remain cautious, especially in rainy conditions. Maintaining safe speeds and distances on wet roads is critical to preventing further accidents. Investigations into both incidents are ongoing.
