In a rear-end smash-up occurring in the Börde region, a 46-year-old operator of a truck met his demise. The incident happened on Thursday morning when a truck needed to halt at the conclusion of a traffic pile-up on the A2 highway near Eimersleben, as stated by authorities. The 46-year-old apparently failed to recognize this in time and, as per a witness's account, plowed into the rear end of the articulated lorry without applying the brakes. He sustained grievous wounds and perished instantly in the crash site. Luckily, the 37-year-old truck driver escaped unscathed. The route leading to Hannover was shut down for numerous hours throughout the investigation and debris removal.
