Shock on the A12: Several trucks collide - traffic jam and injuries!
On Tuesday morning, July 8, 2025, a tragic accident occurred on the A12 between the Müllrose and Briesen junctions, which led to a complete closure of the motorway in the direction of Berlin. There was a collision between several trucks around 7:40 a.m. when one truck drove into the end of a traffic jam without braking. A total of five trucks were involved in the incident, tragically resulting in the death of one person and the serious injury of two others. The rapid deployment of several ambulances to the scene testifies to the urgency of the situation, while the fire brigade took action to free drivers, some of whom were injured and trapped in their vehicles. The truck cabs were pushed one on top of the other, which made rescue efforts even more difficult. According to Tag24, the clean-up work was expected to last until the afternoon.
At the same time, the fire department was alerted at 8:30 p.m. after several small vans collided near the Wildbrücke. Two of the vans involved were traveling with trailers. It initially remained unclear whether there were any injuries. The rescue helicopter from Bad Saarow had to circle over the scene of the accident, but was able to land safely after a full closure was set up. The police diverted traffic widely, which led to significant traffic jams. Police units were also deployed to investigate the cause of the accident. This chaos situation on the A12 bears the hallmarks of a serious incident that is in the context of the current traffic safety situation. According to the traffic accident statistics, such conclusions are necessary to improve and ensure road safety.
