What is a wrong-way crash?
A wrong-way crash happens when a vehicle travels in the opposite direction to the flow of traffic, often on a motorway or dual carriageway. These incidents are thankfully rare but often have devastating consequences due to the high impact speeds involved. The A66 crash tragically illustrates the severe danger posed by such collisions.
