A hillside collapsed onto the main motorway between us and the French border yesterday, halfway between Bilbao and San Sebastian, covering all four carriageways in rocks and burying four cars and a tanker lorry carrying toxic gas(!). Incredibly only one person was slightly injured.
Looking at the footage on the news yesterday this seemed not just incredible but impossible, can you imagine travelling at 80 mph / 120 kph and suddenly ... ?
The motorway was closed all day while they cleared the rubble and debris, and they have just reopened one carriageway this morning.
