Fatal rear -end collision on A6: Sprinter driver dies tragically in Hohenlohe

In a tragic traffic accident on the A6 in the Hohenlohe district, a 48-year-old sprinter driver died on Wednesday afternoon. Shortly before 3 p.m., the driver apparently noticed too late that a truck was waiting at the end of the traffic jam and crashed into full force. In the event of an impact, he suffered such serious injuries that he died at the scene of the accident. Fortunately, the truck driver was unharmed, but the highway in the direction of Heilbronn had to be completely closed to the accident recording, which led to considerable traffic impairments. The property damage is estimated at around 40,000 euros.

The Heilbronn police headquarters informed about the incident and expressed deep regret about the tragic end. Details on possible follow -up accidents due to the full closure are still pending. More information about this incident are to be found here .
