Truck accident on A3: closure for hours causes chaotic traffic!
In the early morning hours of July 2, 2025, a serious truck accident occurred on the A3 between Iggensbach and Hengersberg in the Deggendorf district. At around 4 a.m., a Turkish tractor-trailer crashed into the central barrier, like that PNP reported. The tractor-trailer was traveling on a route from Passau to Regensburg. Luckily everyone remained injured.
The A3, which is known to be the second longest motorway in Germany and runs from the Dutch border to Austria, had to be closed until around 12.15 p.m. due to the accident. The closure was originally planned to last just under two hours, but rescuing the truck from the median proved to be a challenge. This not only led to delays, but also significant traffic jams in rush hour traffic. Detours were heavily overloaded, which further aggravated the situation Day24 holds on.
