Fatal accident occurred after motorist drove into oncoming traffic on the highway.
A tragic incident occurred on the M62 in West Yorkshire when a man driving a Vauxhall Corsa drove the wrong way and collided head-on with a VW Golf. The accident took place at 2:06 am yesterday, prompting a response from the police. The Corsa was traveling westbound on the eastbound carriageway and ended up crashing into the Golf near the Scammonden Bridge.

Sadly, the male driver of the Corsa did not survive the crash and was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Golf sustained serious injuries and was rushed to a local hospital for treatment. Firefighters also arrived at the scene to assist with the aftermath of the collision.

As a result of the accident, both carriageways between Junctions 22 and 24 were closed for a brief period of time. However, National Highways North-West has since announced that the roads have been reopened and there are no longer any delays in the area. This news will come as a relief to those who may have been affected by the road closure.

The West Yorkshire Police have launched an appeal for witnesses to come forward and provide any information or footage they may have of the accident. They are urging anyone with relevant information to get in touch with them as they continue to investigate the incident. This is an ongoing situation and more updates will be provided as they become available.
