B1 / Bakum's Remark - Driver ways responsibility for 40,000 euro-worth crash

A 46-year-old man from the Osnabrück area was behind the wheel of a van on the three-lane A1 freeway, heading towards Hamburg. When they reached the Bakumer Wiesen parking area, the man from Osnabrück moved into the left lane, ignoring the right of way of a 66-year-old driver from Bochum. To prevent a collision with the van, the man from Bochum had to suddenly apply the brakes and steer to the right. In doing so, he crashed into a Polish man's truck.

The VW swerved multiple times and eventually stopped on the outer crash barriers. Both the VW and the truck trailer suffered significant damage, costing an estimated 40,000 euros in total.
