69-Car Accident On Shanghai-Kunming Highway Results In At Least 9 Dead

Near Anshun, Guizhou province on Saturday morning, a traffic accident — possibly a head-on collision — resulted in massive fender-benders going both directions. On one side, 44 cars got tangled up; on the other, 25 cars. All told, 25 were injured and nine died. Traffic didn’t return to normal until eight hours later.

A 69-vehicle accident indeed seems insane, but in China, it feels like business as usual. Sina video for those in China after the jump.
