A truck has rolled onto the highway and overturned in Hesse, police said. Only with great luck did it remain in the case of property damage, the officials said.
Accordingly, the man drove on Monday evening to a rest area Rimberg at Bad Hersfeld on the A5 in East Hesse. He parked the truck on the driveway, presumably because he urgently needed to use the bathroom. What was based on this assumption, a police spokesman on request could not say.
The truck was rolled backwards onto the road and crashed into a concrete boundary. Whether the driver had not operated the brakes correctly or a technical defect was present, is loud police unclear. No one was injured, the damage to the vehicle and the limit amounted to a good 100,000 euros.
