Motorway Accident Report - A rollover incident involving a passenger car on A57 Neuss-Süd - Vehicles ended up on its roof, causing a severe accident with three reported injuries

================================================================================

On Thursday, August 28, 2025, a significant traffic accident took place on the A57 towards Nijmegen at around 18:00. The collision involved a Mercedes and a Citroën.

According to the investigation, the Mercedes, driven by a 47-year-old man from Cologne, was merging onto the highway from the A46 at the Neuss-Süd interchange. After merging, the driver suddenly swerved into the left lane, losing control of the vehicle. The Mercedes collided with the concrete barrier and then spun into the Citroën on the middle lane.

The impact caused the Citroën to flip over and land on its roof. The 20-year-old driver of the Citroën sustained serious injuries, while the two passengers, who were Polish men aged 49 and 24, were lightly injured. The driver of the Mercedes remained unharmed.

During the investigation, traffic was rerouted around the accident via the left and right lanes. The accident scene caused a blockage, and all lanes on the A57 towards Nijmegen were closed. However, the lanes were reopened at around 20:45.

The search results do not provide the name of the 47-year-old driver from Cologne involved in the accident. The Citroën was occupied by the three Polish men, whose identities have not been disclosed at this time.

Authorities are still investigating the cause of the accident and are urging drivers to exercise caution on the roads. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of safe driving and the potential consequences of reckless behaviour on the highway.
