Trailout with food oil goes up in flames: Mega backlog to A8!

Trailout with food oil goes up in flames: Mega backlog to A8!

on Tuesday evening, shortly before 7:00 p.m., on the motorway 8 between the Karlsruhe motorway triangle and Karlsbad broke up a tractor -trailer with 20 pallet food oil for previously unknown reasons. The inferno ensured massive smoke development and led to an hour -long blocking of the road towards Stuttgart. Result: A kilometer long traffic jam that braked travelers into the aftermath traffic!

The fire brigade fought the flames, while for the rescue and cleaning work, the road remains completely closed until 3:00 a.m. The property damage amounts to around 250,000 euros, but luckily there were no injuries. A burning cooking oil truck not only ensures chaos-it also requires patience from everyone who was nearby!
