A serious traffic accident caused significant traffic disruptions near Altusried today, November 6, 2025. Shortly after leaving the town in the direction of Krugzell, four vehicles collided, injuring three people. The severity of the injuries is currently unclear. On the state road between Altusried and Dietmannsried, a main traffic route that is used for both commuters and heavy goods traffic, the route is currently completely closed, which is likely to lead to significant delays, especially in rush hour traffic. Police, fire and rescue forces are on site to clarify the situation and regulate traffic, reports Allgäuer Zeitung.
Eyewitnesses describe a picture of devastation at the scene of the accident. It is a serious situation that affects the Oberallgäu region, where traffic frequency is particularly high in the morning and evening.

The accident began with a head-on collision between two cars, which subsequently involved two other vehicles. However, the exact sequence of events has yet to be determined. Currently, the injured are connecting with the deployment of emergency vehicles who are working tirelessly to bring the situation under control.
For the responsible district administrator Indra Baier-Müller from the Free Voters, the incident is an urgent wake-up call regarding road safety in the region.
