Serious accident on A39: full closure and 9 km traffic jam after collision!

A serious traffic accident occurred this morning on the A 39 motorway in the direction of Hamburg when at around 5:30 a.m. a 24-year-old man with his Skoda Octavia caught due to the rain wet road. He collided with the protection plank and then stopped across the road, which led to a dramatic consequence.

A 31-year-old woman who drove her Opel Astra behind the Skoda had no way to stop and crashed into the parked car head-on. In this impact, the drivers were seriously injured and trapped in the vehicle, while the 24-year-old was only slightly injured. Both participants were immediately taken to nearby hospitals.

full closure of the motorway

The motorway had to be completely closed due to the accident for about 90 minutes, during this period the traffic at the Winsen-Ost junction was derived. This measure led to a considerable backflow of around 9 kilometers, while the rescue workers and the motorway police secured the accident site and carried out the necessary clean -up work.

The use of the fire brigade and emergency services was crucial to free the injured driver from her vehicle and to supply her medically as soon as possible. The traffic situation on the A 39 is naturally heavily burdened, and such accidents can have significant effects on flowing traffic. The weather conditions, especially on rain -wet streets, require increased caution from all drivers.
