A multi-vehicle accident occurred on Monday, 01.09.2025, on the A1 highway near Delmenhorst in the rural area of Wesermarsh.
The incident involved a Mercedes and a Chrysler. According to police reports, the crash that caused the Chrysler vehicle to catch fire was the result of a 47-year-old woman from Lingen driving a Mercedes who ignored the following 44-year-old Chrysler driver from Damme during an overtaking maneuver. This led to a collision involving both vehicles and a truck, which then caused the Chrysler to catch fire. Fortunately, the fire was extinguished by bystanders on site.
The 47-year-old woman, her passenger, the 44-year-old man, and his 17-year-old passenger were taken to nearby hospitals by ambulance. All parties involved sustained minor injuries.
The Chrysler was driven by a 44-year-old man from Damme. The driver of the truck, a 53-year-old man, was unharmed.
Two of the involved vehicles were no longer roadworthy and required towing. The estimated material damage to the vehicles was approximately 38,000 euros.
The A1 highway was temporarily closed for accident investigation and vehicle recovery. It was partially reopened for subsequent road cleaning.
