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.
