Oh bugger, there’s a Transam lorry gone over in a really bad way just outside Gothenburg. Its lying on central reservation facing the wrong way. Looks horrible. I hope the driver is ok. After my crash seeing things like that have a funny effect on me. im really not posting this in a rubbernecking way but would genuinely like to know if he’s ok. There was another Transam there too.

The truck with the global star’s equipment tipped over my railing and was in the wrong direction on E6 outside Gothenburg.
But Madonna’s Gothenburg concert is not at stake:
- We are working to prepare for the concert, said press officer Christopher Akesson Live Nation.
Shortly after seven o’clock on Tuesday morning, police received the alarm about a truck rollover on the E6 between KÃ¥llered junction and Torrekulla junction south of Gothenburg. The truck has tipped over my railing on the freeway blocking traffic in both north-and southbound lanes.
“Preparing concert”
Long The trader was loaded with equipment to be used during Madonna’s concert at Ullevi stadium in the morning. She had to go a concert in Copenhagen and the truck was on its way to Gothenburg. But the accident will probably not affect the event.
- I suspect that if it was anything serious so we had that information at this time. I have not received any information about the audio equipment or anything else in the truck, says Kristofer Akesson, press officer at concert promoter Live Nation to Aftonbladet at 10 o’clock.
Police said the truck should have been salvaged from the highway to a nearby location where it will be reloaded.
Two to Hospital
Following overturning of the truck also has three cars collided.
Police patrol and ambulance work at 7:30 o’clock in the spot and two lanes are closed. One person has been transferred to Varberg Hospital. Although the driver of the truck has been taken to hospital, police said, they involved not received any serious injury.
Since the truck’s diesel tanks have been destroyed in the accident, a comprehensive remediation work be conducted on site. What caused the accident where the truck overturned police do not know.
- We have not received any reports on it at the moment, what it is that has prevented the passing there. We get avvavkta and see what they say is in place, says Henrik Sterner, assistant officer in charge of the police to Aftonbladet Gothenburg on Tuesday morning.
Nice to see Madonna’s management team are more concerned about the equipment and event than the driver

Do you really expect anything different?
Unfortunately …No
Hope Euromat is ok, as i know he was enroute to gothenburg last night!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using My fingers
Hopefully all involved are ok.
Just met a Swedish chap that watches my videos in Gothenburg (thats a bit mad!!!) and apparently Swedish news are reporting the driver as only having minor injuries, which is a great result considering the state of the truck. He must have been wearing his seatbelt.
I’ve actually got the truck on its side on video because I was late due to the traffic and I was going to attempt some Eddie Stobart style drama but my mood changed when I saw the truck and it took me straight back to the worst day of my career. The video shall probably never make the final cut.

You certainly can-
I’m glad you were ok Luke. Any accident is heart breaking and the bigger they are the more they hurt. Life goes on and I’m glad you got back in and cracked on, it’s the best way.
I was in two minds wether to post anything about this Transam accident to be honest because I know how I felt at the time but it was the overwhelming support from people online that made it so much easier so I did. I can imagine exactly what he’s going through right now. Mine was on a Tuesday too and I dont mind admitting it made me cry! And I never wanted to get behind the wheel of a lorrh again. But then I saw everyones messages of support and it kept me going. So, Transam man, whoever you are, you feel like crap right now. But get driving again, and you’ll get over it.

Nothing much changed in the transport industry there then eh? 
Had a brief reply from from Mat. No it wasn’t him. Yes the drivers in one piece, in hospital but, i reckon, a bit shaken.

Good news that the driver is hopefully going to be ok, after all the fatalities recently.
