A truck from Morocco and also bearing Moroccan registration overturned yesterday near the A42 motorway in Villeurbanne, in the Lyon region.

It took several hours for the firefighters and the police to clear this ramp, which was not reopened to users until 6 p.m., or more than 4 hours of disruption.
