Two people have been taken to hospital in Hamar with minor injuries. On the E6 in Råde in Østfold, a 75-metre median ramp has been destroyed after a car spun around several times. No injuries were reported, but traffic slowly moved past the scene of the accident while the road was cleared. In Ullensaker, also in Øvre Romerike, a car has driven out and ended up on its side along Mogreinavegen, east of the E6. The driver appears to be uninjured, says the Eastern Police District. According to the police, there was snow and slippery conditions at the scene. The car had summer tires and the driver will be reported.

On Fylkesveg 206 near Sønsterud in Åsnes in Hedmark, two cars were involved in an accident on Monday evening. There are also problems on E18. Above Liertoppen in Viken there are dense snowdrifts and snow cover. Asks motorists to leave cars with summer tires parked. Precipitation in large parts of Eastern Norway has led to very varied driving conditions on the roads around Oslo last night. Traffic operator Thale Eikeset at Vegtrafikksentralen east informs NTB at 02.40. – South of Oslo it is mostly rain and fine on the roads, but if you come north of Gardermoen, it is more slush and snow. The important thing to think about is that slush gives very poor road grip, says the traffic operator. She goes on to say that there are crews out on the roads working on both plowing and salting. – It’s slippery here, so if you have summer tyres, you should leave the car, says Eikeset.
