Oil spill on state highway: Police are looking for perpetrators after dangerous incident
Today, October 12, 2025, an incident in Fuchstal is causing considerable excitement. Unknown persons intentionally dumped vegetable oil on State Highway 2055, making the road extremely slippery. This dangerous interference with road traffic was discovered on Saturday, October 11th, around 9 p.m. Fortunately, this grotesque action did not result in a traffic accident, but the consequences could have been devastating.
The Fuchstal fire department came into action immediately and cleaned the road to avoid further danger to road users. There have been similar incidents on this route in the past, which only adds to the concerns of local residents. The police are now investigating dangerous interference with road traffic, which is punishable according to Section 315b of the Criminal Code. A dangerous intervention occurs when people from outside influence what is happening on the road.
During the research, an empty bottle of sunflower oil was discovered, which is now being examined for traces. This could provide information about the identity of the perpetrator. The punishment for such dangerous interventions should not be underestimated: the perpetrators must expect a fine or a prison sentence of up to five years. In particularly serious cases, the penalty can even be increased to up to ten years if another crime was involved or serious consequences were caused for other road users, as the legal situation made clear by Bussgeldkatalog.org.
Looking for witnesses
The Landsberg am Lech police are appealing to witnesses to come forward. Anyone who can help clarify the incident is asked to call 08191 9320. It is also currently being checked whether the crime is related to other incidents on the state highway.
This incident has once again fueled the discussion about road safety. Dangerous manipulations in public spaces occur again and again, which not only have legal consequences, but above all can also endanger the lives of other people. A thorough awareness of this issue could help prevent such incidents in the future. Concerned citizens are asked to actively promote safety in their surroundings.
