The emergency services were notified, around 1:40 a.m., for a brush fire along the expressway. “On the way, we had a second piece of information, according to which a vehicle was on fire at the level of the motorway exit located near the industrial zone. We have implemented the necessary means, a pumper, a tank truck, a command vehicle, an ambulance and a Smur, ”says Lieutenant Ratte, from the rescue zone. The operation ended around 7 a.m. The damaged car is registered in Belgium.
According to the mayor of Tournai, the vehicle was traveling in the direction of Mouscron towards Tournai. The accident took place at the interchange between the Tournai-Lille and Tournai-Bruges motorways, near the Tournai West industrial zone. “This is where he left his trajectory for an as yet undetermined reason, hit the berm on the right. Following this loss of control, he hit a second berm, and literally flew into the trees on the side, before catching fire,” Paul-Olivier Delannois told local media.
