Major Traffic Incidents Disrupt UK and US Roads

A lorry crashed off the M90 flyover at Craigend Interchange near Perth, Scotland, landing upside down on the A912 below and critically injuring the driver, who was airlifted to Ninewells Hospital; the M90 junction and surrounding roads remain closed for barrier repairs, causing heavy delays. Emergency services responded promptly and motorists have been urged to use alternative routes. Separately, in Liverpool, the M53 southbound was closed between junctions five and six after a rush-hour collision, resulting in severe congestion and a major emergency response. In Stamford, Connecticut, Haig Avenue was closed between Gray Farms Road and Knox Road following a crash, with authorities advising drivers to avoid the area. These incidents collectively caused significant disruption for motorists and emergency services. The events underscore ongoing road safety and emergency response challenges in the UK and US.
