Taxi rams full tram in Munich: driver injured!
On the evening of November 11, 2025, there was a spectacular accident in Munich around 5 p.m. in which a taxi collided with a crowded tram on line 18.

The taxi driver was injured in the collision, while the exact circumstances of the accident are still unclear. [tz.de].
In the two left lanes heading into the city, traffic was unable to flow for a long time, which led to a full traffic jam. The Munich transport company was quickly on site and took control of the affected tram. Although the incident caused some excitement, measures were quickly taken to calm traffic.

The tram was quickly cleared at that time and the road had to be cleaned of vehicle parts and operating materials in order to reopen traffic. This showed that the Munich transport company works efficiently and takes control of the situation when necessary.
Outlook on the cause of the accident
Since the exact causes of the current accident are still unclear, a thorough investigation is being carried out. Police have already begun an investigation to determine exactly what led to the collision. In particular, the taxi driver's possible U-turn is questioned.

For example, does training for taxi drivers on traffic rules and safety-conscious driving need to be increased? Such considerations are now on the table as residents and commuters in the city hope that such incidents will not be repeated and that traffic management in this busy city will be further optimized.
