A stretch of Hwy 401 that had been closed after a fatal crash has re-opened.
Eastbound collector lanes of the 401 were blocked at Hwy 404 after a driver slammed a car into the back of a transport truck and caught fire. The driver of the car was pronounced dead at the scene. The truck appears to have been slowing in anticipation of construction ahead.
The highway was cleared at about 9 a.m.
