Washington: Due to the fog, more than 150 vehicles collided on the highways in America, as a result of which 7 people were killed and more than 25 were injured, while dozens of vehicles were damaged.
According to the World News Agency, the fog engulfed the highway in the southern US state of Louisiana. Due to reduced visibility, the vehicles collided and caught fire.
