A multi-car crash on the Pacific Motorway leaves a woman feared dead, with traffic severely disrupted for hours, according to multiple outlets. The incident occurs during heavy rain and poor visibility, conditions that contributed to vehicles colliding on the motorway. The crash triggers a major traffic backup, with queues reportedly extending more than 10 kilometres. Authorities close the Pacific Motorway to manage the scene and allow emergency response operations. The reports describe the situation as ongoing for several hours due to the volume of traffic and the effects of weather on driving conditions. No additional details about the number of vehicles involved, the location between specific interchanges, or the woman’s condition are provided in the summaries. The shared accounts focus on the feared fatality of the woman, the motorway shutdown, and the extent of the resulting delays, attributing the incident to hazardous conditions including heavy rainfall and reduced sightlines.
