Original source: De Noordoostpolder

In Brief

On Monday afternoon, a camper van left the road on the A6 slip road in Lelystad. Two passengers were injured and evacuated by air ambulance. The slip road was closed.

On Monday, 20 April 2026, around 15:10–15:30, a camper van crashed on the slip road of the A6 motorway in Lelystad, Netherlands. According to sources, the camper left the road at the exit, then went down the entrance ramp and came to a stop in the verge. Two passengers were injured (some sources say several people).

A medical helicopter was deployed and landed near the motorway. The injured were taken to hospital by ambulance. The slip road towards Almere and the exit from the A6 towards Lelystad were fully closed for several hours.

A separate incident on the same A6 occurred on 18 April around 22:30 near Emmeloord: a converted van camper overturned, injuring the driver. The recovery was delayed due to a suspected gas leak, which turned out to be unfounded.

Accident on A7: camper and car collide

On the A7 motorway in the Netherlands, a camper and a passenger car collided late Thursday afternoon. Both vehicles were traveling south when the driver of the camper, for unknown reasons, rear-ended the car. The impact pushed the car forward into the guardrail. Both vehicles sustained damage. An ambulance attended the scene to check those involved; no one required hospital transport. The accident caused traffic disruption on the A7, with part of the roadway temporarily closed. Earlier on Thursday, a serious accident occurred on the A7 near Wognum, where a van left the road and overturned, leading to the full closure of the A7 toward Den Oever.
