Chaos in Kent as more than 200 are injured In an accident in UK
A 100-vehicle pile-up on a bridge in heavy fog today left eight people seriously injured and 200 with minor wounds in what witnesses called 'carnage'.
The incident on the new Sheppey crossing bridge in Kent started at 7.15am and continued for 10 minutes as cars and lorries crashed into each other.
Nobody is believed to have died in the A249 pile-up which saw visibility drop to just 20 yards, but there were reports of some motorists driving 'like idiots'.
The scene was full of buckled cars, lorries and even a car transporter as people waited at the side of the road to receive help from emergency services.
People were reportedly trapped and 30 ambulances and response vehicles went to the scene, with some casualties receiving treatment at the roadside.
Witness Martin Stammers, 45, from Minster, told Kent Online: 'It's horrific. I've never seen anything like it in my life. All you could hear was cars crashing.
'We got out of our car and it was eerily quiet, with visibility down to just 20 yards.'
