A dispute between two drivers escalated so much on Friday evening that they attacked each other on the A8.
A man was injured in the process.
Siegsdorf – Two drivers probably didn't like each other very much.
A heated argument broke out between them on Friday evening, June 17, on the A8 towards Munich.
This went so far that even fists flew - and that in the middle of the freeway.
The two squabblers now have a gauge on their necks and one of them may have lost two teeth.
Dispute on A8 escalates: men fight in breakdown bay
It was around 6:50 p.m. when the two belligerent drivers were driving on the A8 in the direction of Munich.
The dispute between the two began around the height of Siegdorf in the district of Traunstein.
In one of the cars, a BMW, sat a 39-year-old from Munich.
The other car, a VW, was driven by a 40-year-old from Kolbermoor.
For reasons that are not yet known, the traffic police in Traunstein wrote in their press release that there were "duress actions" between the two drivers.
The two cars probably cut each other more often.
These provocations went so far that both vehicles stopped at the side of the road on the A8.
They literally slowed each other down.
In a breakdown bay, the dispute went into the second round.
The differences were obviously not yet resolved, writes the police.
After the two men had initially only attacked each other verbally, at some point their fists flew.
The Munich man probably received such a heavy blow that he ended up with two loose teeth.
Dispute on the A8: reports of physical harm and coercion
The police got wind of the altercation on the freeway.
Criminal proceedings were then initiated against both drivers for mutual bodily harm and coercion.
In addition, the two brawlers had to give up their driver's licenses.
The respective driving license offices are now checking whether the two are at all suitable for driving a motor vehicle.
