Serious accident on the A99: 79-year-old dies, traffic jam to the north of Munich!
A tragic traffic accident on the A99 in the direction of Salzburg caused great sadness and many disabilities on Saturday morning, October 25, 2025, around 6:15 a.m. Shortly after the Munich North intersection there was a serious crash in which a 79-year-old woman was killed and two other people suffered serious injuries. Mercury reports.
The course of the accident leaves sad questions unanswered: A 27-year-old man drove off the road for reasons that are still unclear and crashed into a concrete sliding wall. While he was standing in his vehicle, a 73-year-old driver stopped to help; his 79-year-old wife remained in the car. At that moment, a 19-year-old driver came too close to the scene of the accident in his van and collided with the 73-year-old's vehicle. The collision immediately had fatal consequences for the 79-year-old, who was taken to hospital but later died there. BR informed.
Traffic chaos on the A99
Due to the accident, the A99 had to be completely closed until around 4:45 p.m. for rescue work and police investigations. This led to a kilometer-long backlog that significantly slowed down many commuters in the morning hours. Although the risk of traffic jams was great, all the drivers soon began to hope that the situation would be resolved quickly. After around ten hours the road was finally passable again. Mercury states.
The accident not only severely affected those affected, but also cast a spotlight on general traffic safety on German roads. According to road traffic accident statistics, it is extremely important to collect reliable data on such events in order to take future measures to improve road safety. Destatis explains the importance.
The police have started investigating the circumstances of the accident and are also examining what other factors might have contributed to the accident. It remains to be hoped that such tragic incidents can be avoided in the future and that quick help for injured people becomes a matter of course. For all those who are directly affected, we can only hope that they receive the support they need during this difficult time.
