All available personnel from the Torrevieja Fire Station attended the the incident. They were able to confirm that the vehicle passengers were able to leave the burning car and were not trapped.

They have subsequently extinguished the flames of car although it has been burned to a shell. The accident occurred on a stretch with a double continuous line and a single lane in each direction of travel.

The traffic was regulated by several patrols of the Civil Guard and the Local Police causing the collapse of traffic around the Park of Nations and commercial zone.

This is the third serious accident that has occurred on the same section of the N-332 in recent months and comes on the day that the Government announces that it is close to approving the construction of a dual carriageway between the Torrevieja University Hospital and the Ozone commercial centre at the access to the CV -905.
