Two injured in an accident in Herbsthausen: police are investigating!

A spectacular accident caused a stir this Wednesday morning, July 3, 2025, in the quiet town of Herbsthausen near Bad Mergentheim. Shortly after 8 a.m., two vehicles collided there, resulting in injuries to both drivers. A 24-year-old Nissan driver and a 69-year-old Toyota driver were affected, both of whom suffered minor injuries in the worst case scenario.

The younger driver was driving his Nissan on Alte Kaiserstraße in the direction of Bad Mergentheim when the collision occurred for reasons that are still unclear. The older driver, in the Toyota, hit the Nissan from behind. Exactly how this collision came about remains a mystery. My news reports that the Toyota was forced off the road after the collision and collided with a garden fence.

Injuries and vehicles

The outcome of the accident is as follows: The 69-year-old was taken to hospital with minor injuries, where he was treated immediately. The 24-year-old, however, did not require hospital treatment, although he also sustained minor injuries. What was particularly pleasing was that two children who were in the back seat of the Nissan were fortunately uninjured.

Both vehicles were no longer drivable after the incident and had to be towed away. Due to the rescue measures, the road remained closed until it was fully opened. The total damage amounts to around 20,000 euros, which illustrates the material dimension of the accident. According to another report from Press portal The exact cause of the collision remains unclear.

A good reason for all road users to be particularly attentive and careful in these warm summer days. Especially in residential areas like Herbsthausen, where many families live, it is even more important to reduce your speed and pay attention to the traffic situation. So keep your eyes open and drive safely!
