Deadly collision claims 19 lives near the outskirts of Huehuetoca on the Mexico–Querétaro Highway, sparking questions and delays. What began as an ordinary Wednesday morning quickly turned into chaos as a multi-vehicle crash brought traffic to a standstill.
A heavy trailer traveling toward Mexico City reportedly lost control near kilometer marker 059+000, crashing into several vehicles including five passenger cars and a pickup truck. The incident blocked all three northbound lanes and caused hours of gridlock. Initial reports suggest wet road conditions may have contributed to the crash, but authorities are also investigating possible mechanical failure, human error, or driver fatigue.
Emergency responders treated several injured individuals on-site, with a few transported to local hospitals for further evaluation. Cleanup efforts and a full investigation are ongoing as officials work to determine the exact cause and prevent similar incidents in the future.
