VN24 - 20.04.2021 - Erwitte-Anröchte / Germany - In the early hours of the morning at about 05:44 o'clock, the driver of a semi-trailer truck on the A44 highway between Soest and Erwitte in the direction of Kassel (eastbound) left his lane to the right for reasons unknown so far, got onto the unpaved shoulder and the semi-trailer finally lay on its side in a ditch. To recover the vehicle, 26 tons of grain first had to be pumped into a replacement vehicle using a suction truck. Then a towing company used a salvage vehicle to put the truck back on all wheels and pulled it out of the ditch with winches. The driver of the tractor-trailer was apparently uninjured.
