Six vehicles were involved in the rear-end collision that occurred on Friday on the A8 in the direction of Salzburg.
Holzkirchen - As the police announced, a 59-year-old from the Netherlands drove his Audi A5 towards Salzburg at 2:10 p.m.
In front of the construction site at the Holzkirchen junction, he had to brake due to traffic.
An 18-year-old from Dachau overlooked this - and drove the Dutchman into the back with her Dacia.
Behind it was a 43-year-old with his Saab 900 from Prien am Chiemsee, who was still braking, but what a 48-year-old from Weyarn overlooked.
She drove up to the Chiemsee in her Skoda.
It was the same for a 28-year-old Audi driver.
He braked in front of the accident site, which a 21-year-old woman from Holzkirchen noticed too late - and hit him with her Audi Q 5.
One person was slightly injured in the accident and was taken to a nearby hospital with the ambulance service.
As a result of the accident, the middle and right lanes were blocked, which quickly caused a traffic jam that built up as far as the Brunnthal junction.
Five vehicles had to be towed because they were no longer ready to drive.
The total damage amounts to around 150,000 euros.
At around 3:40 p.m., the scene of the accident was cleared again and the traffic jam was slowly clearing up.
