Iron bars fall from trailer: tractor-trailer severely damaged!
A shocking incident occurred today on the A94 motorway, just before the Neuötting exit in the direction of Passau, when an unknown driver of a green vehicle combination, possibly a Seat or VW, was involved in a traffic accident. According to innsalzach24.de the incident occurred this morning around 9:30 a.m. The vehicle combination, which was traveling with a trailer and came from Austria, was overtaking a Hungarian tractor-trailer when it suddenly lost two iron bars from the loading area.

This incident led to a short-term closure of the area while the highway maintenance department secured the tractor-trailer and repaired the damage. The police are now urgently looking for witnesses who can provide information about the vehicle combination that caused the accident. These can contact the Mühldorf a. motorway police station.
