Five people were injured in two rear-end collisions on the A10 at the Potsdam Autobahn triangle within about ten hours.
► Due to a braking maneuver by a driver, six vehicles were involved in an accident on Friday near the Glindow junction (Potsdam-Mittelmark) in the direction of Frankfurt (Oder), the police said.
The driver of the car had braked according to the information out of caution. A driver driving behind him was able to react in time, but the vehicles following her were no longer able to. The cars pushed into each other within a few seconds due to high traffic density, as a police spokesman said.
The fire brigade initially assumed numerous injuries. Four ambulances were on site, a helicopter brought an ambulance, as the spokesman further reported.
Ultimately, two injured came to a hospital. The lane was closed for about an hour.
► Previously, on Friday night, a 25-year-old inattentive driver near the Glindow junction (Potsdam-Mittelmark) drove into a car ahead.
Three people were taken to area hospitals with injuries. Two lanes had to be closed for the recovery and rescue work.
At the Potsdam motorway junction construction work is currently being carried out.
