In a series of events, Offenbach am Main and the A3 motorway in Southeast Hesse have been the scene of several incidents over the past few days.
On the A3 motorway between the junctions Obertshausen and Hanau, a traffic accident involving three vehicles occurred on Tuesday afternoon. The Peugeot driver, apparently not able to react in time, clipped the rear of a stationary truck, causing significant traffic congestion and a backup. The driver of a preceding truck had to brake to a standstill due to traffic. The Seat driver, unable to brake in time, collided with the truck. Both drivers, a 35-year-old and a 36-year-old, were injured and taken to hospitals for further medical treatment.
The accident caused damage estimated at 53,000 euros. Witnesses of the accident are still asked to call the number 06181 9010-0 at the police headquarters Southeast Hesse.
