A 24-year-old was only slightly injured in an accident with a large debris field on Autobahn 6. He had apparently been traveling too fast when a car pulled into his lane.

The accident early Saturday morning left a field of rubble that stretched over several hundred meters. The highway was completely closed for about an hour, the police said. The driver was taken to hospital by ambulance and is expected to make a full recovery. The incident happened on the A6 near Heilbronn-Biberach.
