VN24 - 04-10-2023 (D/M/Y) - Unna A1 / Germany - (Part 1/2) A dramatic accident occurred on the A1 Freeway in the night of October 04. A few hundred meters behind the freeway intersection Unna/Dortmund (A1/A44) a transporter (Mercedes Sprinter) with box trailer drove at about 01:54 a.m. in a southbound direction and hit a truck trailer combination, which had come to a standstill at the end of a traffic jam. The impact was so violent that it buckled the trailer of the truck beneath the roll-off container at an angle of almost 90 degrees. In the transporter, the 39-year-old passenger lost his life. The 40-year-old driver was rescued from his trapped position behind the steering wheel by the fire department. He was taken to hospital with serious injuries. The 35-year-old driver of the truck escaped without injuries. Until the early morning hours, the fire department tried to separate the two accident vehicles with the help of several winches and a 70-ton crane of the Dortmund fire department. The police then interrupted this work shortly before 04:00 hrs to freeze the accident site for further extensive investigations.
The actual salvage of the vehicles by a towing company, which could begin around 07:10 after sunrise, you can see in video part 2
