Catastrophic road incident on the A6 highway - traffic standstill heading towards Nuremberg
In a tragic incident, a fatal accident occurred on the A6 highway near Ilshofen on Wednesday afternoon. The collision involved a 41-year-old driver of an Iveco box truck and a stationary truck.
The accident took place between Ilshofen and Kirchberg, a section of the A6 that is particularly busy. As a result, the A6 was closed from Heilbronn towards Nuremberg for investigation.
The driver of the Iveco box truck failed to brake and collided with the stationary truck in a traffic jam, resulting in the complete closure of the A6 towards Nuremberg. Sadly, both the truck driver and the passenger in the Iveco box truck sustained severe injuries. The driver died at the scene, while the passenger was taken to a hospital.
No further details about the cause of the accident were provided. The man driving the Iveco box truck succumbed to his injuries at the scene. The location of the accident was not specified beyond being near Ilshofen.
