A chain of events led to the creation of a giant pile-up on the highway between the Black Sea and Bucharest (the Constanta - Bucharest Sun Highway). Dozens of cars crashed, with at least one driver died and other 7 were injured, as a result of a thick smoke coming from a burning field. The highway is currently closed between the 80th and 95th kilometer.

The traffic is still blocked, if coming from the Black Sea shore and runs with difficulties towards Constanta.
