Traffic chaos in Vilshofen: B8 closed until early due to accident!
On the night of June 16, 2025, there were significant traffic disruptions on the B8 in Vilshofen an der Donau.

These traffic restrictions began at 12:35 a.m. and lasted until 4:35 a.m [news.de](https://www.news.de/auto/858700441/verkehrsmelde-vilshofen-an-der-donau-zur-verkehrsstoerung-wegen-un case-on-16-06-2025-restrictions-in-traffic-danger-of-congestion-in-vilshofen-an-der-Donau-zip-code-94474-seestetten-auf-b8/1/) reported.
The closure extended for around 3.6 kilometers and affected both traffic from Plattling towards Passau and vice versa, between the Gaisbruck exit and Passau. Motorists were urged to avoid the area to avoid traffic jams. Despite this recommendation, traffic came to a standstill because many drivers did not take the diversions into account in time.
