All eastbound lanes have reopened after fiery tractor trailer crash on Highway 401

The eastbound lanes of Highway 401 that were partially blocked in Mississauga after a fiery collision involving four tractor trailers near the Highway 407 on-ramp on Thursday have all reopened.

Police say two of the trucks caught fire in the crash, with one of them becoming engulfed in flames.

The collision was first reported shortly just after noon.

OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said the drivers have suffered minor injuries.

One of the drivers who was transported to a hospital has been charged with reckless driving, Schmidt said.
