Who investigates Channel Tunnel crashes?
Since the incident occurred at Coquelles, near Calais, the investigation will be led by French authorities. They are responsible for determining the cause of the collision between the minibus and the freight train. This aligns with international protocols for incidents happening within a country's territorial jurisdiction, even if it involves international transport.
