The Land Rover Discovery, driven by a local medical professional, proceeding east on the highway towards Meerensee, had stopped for the red light when the truck – apparently without braking – smashed into it from the rear.

While a passing motorist chased after the truck, the driver of the Discovery was, amazingly, uninjured and able to get out of the wreck.
