Health sources said that two of the women, who were 45 and 57 years old, had whiplash, and the other two, who were 38 and 61 years old, had bruising. After being stabilised at the site, all four were transferred to Elda General Hospital for evaluation and treatment.

While emergency services were on the scene, the accident caused traffic backups on the highway. However, traffic returned to normal once the vehicles involved were evacuated and the route was cleared.
