A man was critically injured early this morning when his car crashed into traffic lights on Civil Aviation Road, the road to the airport in Luqa.
The accident happened at about 5.30 a.m. The 54-year-old driver from Rabat was driving a Toyota Corolla. His injuries are life-threatening, the police said.
A Magisterial inquiry is underway.
The road was closed, adding misery to motorists who yesterday had to endure traffic jams well into the evening after nearby Aldo Moro Road was closed when a trailer overturned.
