Terrible accident near Braunschweig: three dead and one seriously injured!
In Braunschweig, a tragic accident shakes the region. On October 29, 2025, there was a serious traffic accident on the B4, at the bridge over the Mittelland Canal, in which three people were killed. A 53-year-old man is in critical condition and was flown to a clinic in Hanover with life-threatening injuries. A 47-year-old woman who was in the same vehicle sustained serious injuries, but her life is not in danger. Two other people were also injured.
The accident began when a 34-year-old driver evaded a traffic control on the A2. In a breakneck overtaking maneuver on the single-lane B4, he hit several cars before crashing into a guardrail. When the vehicle crossed into oncoming traffic, it collided head-on with the 54-year-old's car and the 47-year-old's car. Tragically, the vehicle belonging to the person suspected of causing the accident broke through the bridge railing and fell into the Mittelland Canal. Police reported that the driver was under the influence of excessive speed, fueling prosecutors' investigation into manslaughter. [NDR].
