On Friday night, a tanker truck slipped into a ditch on the L3199 near Bad Orb in southern Hesse. According to the police, the rescue was difficult.

Bad Orb – The tanker truck loaded with around 30,000 liters of diesel came off the road early on Friday morning on Landesstraße 3199 (Main-Kinzig-Kreis*) and landed in a ditch. It took hours to salvage the tractor and the tank trailer, from which no charge escaped. As can be read on fuldaerzeitung.de*, the accident was preceded by a risky overtaking maneuver in the oncoming lane.

The 60-year-old driver of the tanker was unharmed. However, the rescue measures lasted several hours, so that the route was completely blocked until 6 a.m. *fuldaerzeitung.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
