Chaos on the A9: again fatal accident at Lenting!

On January 8, 2025, on the A9 in Bavaria, near Lenting and Ingolstadt, a serious traffic accident occurred, which resulted in traffic restrictions. According to News.de The motorway was closed in both directions from 02:33 a.m. to 6:33 a.m. The closure extended over a length of 4.6 km and affected both the route from Nuremberg to Munich and the direction from Munich to Nuremberg.

This information is based on data from the Central Office for Transport Management of the Bavaria State Building Directorate.

accident series on the A9

like br.de an accident series occurred on the A9 on Wednesday morning, which also led to full closure. The first accident happened between Denkendorf and Lenting when a 58-year-old driver crashed into the middle course and held 300 meters away. After getting out, he was hit by a truck and later succumbed to his injuries. As a result, the highway in the direction of Munich had to be completely closed.

A second accident occurred a few hours later at Lenting, where a truck opened on two standing trucks. The 53-year-old driver of the rising truck was seriously injured. To land a rescue helicopter was necessary to temporarily block it. The traffic was then led by one lane past the scene of the accident, but the rescue and clean-up work took several hours and led to a kilometer-long traffic jam.

It is the third day in a row when full closures occur on the A9 in the vicinity of Ingolstadt. Previously, a truck loaded with meat had overturned at Lenting on Monday, which resulted in a long use of the rescue work. On Tuesday there was another accident with a tank truck further south, where the highway had to be closed for hours from the Manching junction.
