Some 500 meters after the Alliance roundabout, a heavy goods vehicle stopped on the emergency lane. The cause was a fire which broke out inside the engine.

The cabin of this road complex which transported around ten cubic meters of wood was completely destroyed. The driver managed to get out in time and was not injured.

Firefighters were able to extinguish the flames before they spread to the load.

The driver reportedly told the gendarmes present on site that overheating of the engine was the cause of the flames.
