Police in Poland confirm a car accident in Müllheim, where an evasion from traffic control ended tragically. Authorities are now urgently seeking witnesses to gather more information about the incident.
On Sunday morning, August 31, 2025, a 25-year-old driver was supposed to be stopped for a routine traffic check in Müllheim. However, the driver attempted to evade the control at a higher speed, leading to a collision in Wehrgasse.
The incident caused substantial damage to two parked vehicles, and the driver subsequently left his damaged car and tried to flee on foot. The Freiburg Traffic Police, who are handling the investigation, were quick to apprehend the man and temporarily arrest him.
Preliminary tests indicated the consumption of intoxicating substances by the man, which may have contributed to the incident. The driver was also found to be driving a vehicle with false license plates and was neither registered nor insured.
The Freiburg Traffic Police are seeking witnesses who may have observed the incident or were affected by the driver's behaviour. If you have any information that could aid the investigation, please contact the Freiburg Traffic Police at 0761-882-3100.

The incident occurred at the Freiburg Police Headquarters, although it is important to clarify that the available information does not provide the name of the head of the Freiburg Police Headquarters or the responsible investigators for the traffic accident on August 31, 2025, in Müllheim. However, Felix Neulinger is noted as the head of the Police Headquarters in Offenburg as of August 1, 2025, which is a nearby jurisdiction but not Freiburg itself.
The Freiburg Traffic Police is urging all drivers to abide by traffic rules and regulations, especially during routine traffic checks. It is crucial to ensure the safety of all road users and to prevent incidents such as this from occurring.
