In Brief
A 35-year-old van driver died on the A6 motorway in Germany after being hit by a motorhome. He had stopped on the right lane due to lack of fuel and got out to refuel from a canister.
On 29 March 2026 at around 20:00, a fatal accident occurred on the A6 motorway towards Nuremberg, near Neuenstein (Baden-Württemberg). A 35-year-old van driver stopped on the right lane because his tank was empty. When he got out to refuel from a canister, he was struck by a passing motorhome. The motorhome driver could not brake in time on a section without a hard shoulder.
The man died at the scene. The A6 was completely closed until midnight, causing a traffic jam of about six kilometres.
