Drama on the B51: Sick overtaking attempt ends in chaos!

on Wednesday, March 19, 2025, a serious traffic accident with several vehicles occurred on the B51 between Helenenberg and Schwarzkreuz. A Trier van started on Bitburg when a following car switched to the left lane to overtake and overlooked a vehicle that was also driving towards the same direction. The collision catapulted this vehicle into oncoming traffic, where it collided with the trailer of an oncoming vehicle. Fortunately, the driver stayed with minor injuries, while the person who caused the accident escaped from the scene of the accident.

But the chaos did not end there: on the opposite lane there was a follow -up accident in which two other people were slightly injured. The property damage to the vehicles involved is considerable and is carefully examined by the police. The search for the fleeting driver has already started.
