On Friday evening, August 29, 2025, a traffic accident occurred at the A 46 interchange in Hilden, Düsseldorf. The incident involved an 18-year-old driver from Gelsenkirchen, who was driving a BMW with an unusual wheel configuration.
The BMW, which had 18-inch wheels on the left side and 16-inch wheels on the right side, came to a stop in the grass median after several collisions. The front right wheel of the BMW was secured with only three lug nuts instead of the intended five, raising questions about its safety.
The driver of the BMW was taken to a hospital with severe injuries. Unfortunately, the details of his identity are not available in the search results. The car was seized as evidence for further investigation.
The car involved in the accident also had a passenger, a 47-year-old individual from Erkrath, who was unharmed in the incident. The driver and passenger of the other vehicle, a Seat, were also unharmed.
The police are investigating whether the unsafe condition of the BMW and an inappropriate speed contributed to the accident. However, no further details about the cause of the accident were provided.
For further inquiries, journalists can contact the Düsseldorf Police Press Office. The accident serves as a reminder for road users to ensure their vehicles are in safe condition and to adhere to speed limits for the safety of all road users.
