This is pictures from a renowned crash in Sweden last year. It was a lot of smog and extreme black ice at the scene. As you can see the accident occurred on two bridges which made it hard to manage the two crash-areas, simply because it was impossible to just walk over the other side.

Do you have any interesting and challenging accidents/scenes from your organizations to share?

I would think about treating each side as a separate scene/event. It will be difficult for incident command on one side to manage/eval the other side. Just set up 2 separate incident commands if you have the resources. I would also have responding ambulances come from the opposite direction of travel, the road is already shut down due to the accident so it should be pretty easy access.

Yep two MCI's with completely separate everything if resources are available. Any resources coming from the north, get the northbound lanes and the resources coming from the south get the southbound lanes.

Acutally at 20 seconds I think it's a tanker truck - maybe a petrol truck

But the wreck just doesn't look too bad until you hit the 40 second mark and then you go "whoa"

Ruff, I did some more research check the 31 second mark of this video. SOS 112 is an emergency number and that truck has what appear to be blue emerg lights.
