Semi-trailer truck loses tires on A94: driver remains uninjured!
On July 9, 2025 at around 7:30 a.m., a remarkable incident occurred on the A94 near Mettenheim. A 35-year-old truck driver from Slovenia had to deal with a dangerous situation with his tractor-trailer when two tires on the drive axle on the left side came off. At Innsalzach24 it is said that the experienced driver fortunately kept calm and managed to bring the heavy vehicle under control. He drove the tractor-trailer onto the acceleration lane and stopped there without affecting other road users.
Despite the minor outcome, the truck sustained material damage amounting to around 4,500 euros. However, the exact cause of the loss of the tires remains unclear and will be further investigated by the Mühldorf am Inn motorway police station. Such incidents are not uncommon on the A94, which was only fully completed after decades of construction work.
The A94 and its meaning
The A94 plays a crucial role as a connection between Munich and Passau and is intended to relieve the heavily trafficked federal highway 12. According to Tag24, the highway is expected to soon be frequented by over 40,000 vehicles per day. However, this high traffic density also brings risks. Accidents often result in traffic jams lasting hours, which can be a test of patience for drivers.
To ensure road safety, accident reports are provided by the police and fire departments.
