Andorran Motorcycle-Car Collision at CG-1 Caused Injuries and Traffic Disruptions
Police and traffic services responded to a collision between a motorcycle and a car at kilometre 0.150 on the CG-1 near the Josep Escaler roundabout in Andorra la Vella, where two local drivers aged 47 and 20 sustained injuries. The incident, reported around 13:00 on Friday, also led to traffic delays in the busy area, including Avinguda Tarragona.
Emergency responders were alerted shortly after 13:00, with a police traffic patrol dispatched to the scene near the Comella roundabout, adjacent to the Justice headquarters.
