Knappe Tunnel Closed After Driver Enters Wrong Lane

Police responded to Knappe Tunnel in Bergen after reports of a car driving northbound in the southbound lane. The driver, a woman in her 80s without a valid license, crashed through a barrier gate and shattered her windshield. Authorities confirmed the woman was not injured but was transported to an emergency clinic for evaluation. The tunnel remains closed until repairs to the damaged barrier are completed. Knappe Tunnel serves as a key transportation route through the mountains surrounding Bergen, Norway's second-largest city.
