Drunken truck driver causes traffic jam chaos in motorway parking lot!

On Monday evening, December 9th, 2024, at 8:10 p.m., a serious incident occurred in the “Seulingswald” parking lot on the A4 in Friedewald that caused a stir. A 60-year-old Polish tractor-trailer driver, who was apparently heavily intoxicated, caused an accident in which a total of four trucks were involved. The driver tried to take a rest in the parking lot, but collided with three other vehicles while parking, some of which sustained significant damage. The result was a parked tractor-trailer that was no longer drivable and blocking the exit, causing traffic delays for several hours. The total damage is estimated at around 40,000 euros. Fortunately, there were no injuries in this chaos news.de reported.

The investigation focuses on those who caused the accident

After the incident, a blood sample was taken from the driver because alcohol consumption was suspected. This meant that the Bad Hersfeld motorway police and a towing service had to be called in to deal with the situation. The parking lot remained closed for several hours, which was loud nh24, causing significant traffic disruptions. Police are now continuing to investigate to clarify the exact circumstances of the incident and to ensure that such dangerous situations can be prevented in the future.
