Back to newsA serious road accident occurred in Crete involving a collision between a passenger car and a heavy truck. One person was injured and transported to hospital for treatment. The exact location on the island has not been specified in available reports, but accidents involving large freight vehicles are more common on Crete's national road network, particularly on routes connecting major towns and ports.
Tourists driving in Crete should exercise caution when sharing roads with heavy goods vehicles, especially on the E75 national highway and mountain roads where lanes can be narrow. Following local speed limits, avoiding overtaking on blind corners, and staying alert during early morning hours when truck traffic is highest are recommended precautions. If you encounter an accident or road obstruction, call the Greek emergency number 112 for assistance.
