Reinsfeld (dpa / lrs) - Five people were injured in two traffic accidents on the A1 near Reinsfeld (Trier-Saarburg district).

A 33-year-old had to avoid a truck with his car on Friday evening, which suddenly changed lanes.

As a result, his car went off the highway, rolled over and got stuck on the roof, the police said.

The driver had to be taken to a hospital, seriously injured.

The truck driver fled from the scene of the accident.

As a result of the accident, traffic on Autobahn 1 stalled.

According to the police, a 52-year-old driver noticed this too late and crashed into the car of a 32-year-old without braking.

Due to the impact, the car in front was thrown against the central guardrail and rammed a vehicle belonging to a 65-year-old.

Four people were slightly injured in the collision.

The 52-year-old did not have a driver's license, the police said.

The motorway was temporarily closed in the direction of Koblenz.
