A serious traffic accident with a truck caused great excitement on the BAB 44 on the BAB 44 and once again shows the importance of community aid in crisis situations. The incident occurred in the morning, shortly after 7 a.m., when two trucks collided with each other in the direction of Dortmund. Immediately after the emergency call, which entered the Kassel fire brigade, numerous emergency services were mobilized.
The alarm included the set -up of the fire station's professional fire brigade 2 as well as several ambulances and the rescue helicopter Christoph 7.

During the journey, further emergency calls reported on a possible fire development, which increased the urgency of the situation.
