BMW goes up in flames: father and son save themselves at the last second!

A 29, 26164 Rastede, Deutschland - A dramatic incident occurred on Sunday, May 25, 2025, on the A29 towards Wilhelmshaven when a BMW went up in flames! The 36-year-old driver, a family man, had just passed the Rastede junction when there was suddenly smoke from the engine compartment. President, he steered his car on the hard shoulder and was able to get to safety with his 8-year-old son before the vehicle burned down completely. Fortunately, both remained intact, but property damage of around 15,000 euros occurred, since the road and protective devices were also affected. The highway had to be cleaned before the traffic could flow again after about two hours.

But the chaos did not end! While the Rastede volunteer fire brigade was employed by the extinguishing work, a 49-year-old driver of a small car ignored the barriers and drove directly to the fire site. The car came back on the overtaking strip as a false driver and could only be stopped by the police officers' waving. The public prosecutor's office in Oldenburg joined the matter: a security deposit was withheld and the traffic offender threatens a driving ban!
