A group of wild boars ran on the A9 at Hof early on Monday morning and caused several accidents.
As the police announced, a 63-year-old from Baden-Württemberg crashed his car into an animal weighing 100 kilograms.
The pig died, the hood of the car bent up and blocked the driver's view so that he crashed into a concrete crash barrier.
A 59-year-old from the Upper Palatinate in Bavaria then collided with the dead wild boar, and his car was also damaged at the front.
The rest of the panicked gang jumped over the concrete wall onto the opposite lane.
A 58-year-old Thuringian finally hit an animal there and his car was demolished.
The total damage was 30,000 euros.
People weren't hurt.
