Pensioner nods off at the wheel on the A95: woken up by an accident, he drives backwards - and causes a second crash. 89-year-old driver from Gräfelfing caused two traffic accidents on Friday around 2 p.m.

The two accidents caused material damage of around 22,000 euros. After consultation with the public prosecutor, his driving license was confiscated. Older drivers are responsible for most serious accidents in Germany. Regular health checks are crucial to ensure you are physically and mentally fit to drive.
