蒙特利爾附近發(fā)生200輛汽車連環(huán)相撞事故，造成2人死亡，70人受傷

Two people were killed and another 70 injured in a massive, roughly 200-car pileup outside of Montreal.

蒙特利爾郊外發(fā)生約200輛汽車連環(huán)相撞事故，造成2人死亡，70人受傷。

A sudden blizzard blinded drivers as it swept through a highway in the city suburb of La Prairie, Quebec, leaving a nearly mile-long stretch of wrecked of sedans, buses and trucks, the Canada Broadcasting Corporation reported.

據(jù)加拿大廣播公司報道，一場突如其來的暴風雪席卷了魁北克省拉普雷里市郊區(qū)的一條高速公路，嚴重影響司機們的視線，最終留下了近一英里長的轎車、公共汽車和卡車殘骸。

“People were driving, there were strong winds … and, suddenly, you couldn’t see anything,” Transport Minister Francois Bonnardel told reporters. “And then, well, the pileup started.”

法國交通部長弗朗索瓦•邦納德爾在接受記者采訪時說:“當時人們正在開車，突然刮起大風……一瞬間，什么也看不見了。”“然后，連環(huán)相撞就開始了。”

At least two drivers were trapped in their vehicles for more than five hours after the crash occurred around 12:30 p.m, according to the Guardian.

據(jù)《衛(wèi)報》報道，事故發(fā)生在下午12:30左右，至少兩名司機被困車內(nèi)超過5個小時。

Footage shows a heap of cars completely totaled, with first responders laboring to tow vehicles out of snowbanks along the roadway.

畫面顯示，一堆汽車完全報廢，現(xiàn)場急救人員正在沿著道路從雪堆中拖出車輛。

A yellow school bus appeared to collide with a tanker truck with a flammable materials sign — two of 75 vehicles that had to be towed from the scene, according to reports.

據(jù)報道，一輛黃色校車似乎與一輛帶有易燃材料標志的油罐車相撞，必須從75輛車中拖出這兩輛。

Of the 70 injuries, 20 were critical, officials said.

官方數(shù)據(jù)，有70人受傷，其中20人傷勢嚴重。
