Major road accident on Brilon between Erkelenz-Ost and Mönchengladbach-Wanlo, resulting in one person being severely injured and significant traffic disruption.
In a shocking turn of events, a significant collision occurred on the A46 road near Wegberg, Germany, at 11:01 AM on August 28, 2025. The accident involved two vehicles: a VW Golf Cabrio and an Audi Q8 RS.
According to the available information, the collision occurred when the VW Golf Cabrio, driven by a 30-year-old man from Wegberg, attempted to merge into the left lane to overtake a truck. Unfortunately, as the Golf Cabrio moved into the left lane, it collided with the oncoming Audi Q8 RS, driven by a 22-year-old man from Belgium, who was approaching from behind at a higher speed.
The impact of the collision caused the Golf Cabrio to spin into the grass median and crash into a tree, while the Audi Q8 RS collided with the median barrier. The 30-year-old driver of the Golf Cabrio was ejected from his vehicle and was transported to a hospital for treatment in an ambulance.
The A46 was temporarily closed in the direction of Brilon for rescue and recovery operations, and traffic was rerouted past the scene using the left lane. An accident investigation team secured the scene of the accident, and investigations into the cause of the accident are ongoing.
It is important to note that the name of the 30-year-old man from Wegberg involved in the accident is not disclosed in the available search results. Only a 34-year-old man from Mönchengladbach is mentioned regarding a severe accident near Wegberg. However, it is assumed that the two incidents are connected.
The full reopening of the road is expected later in the afternoon, subject to the completion of the investigation and the necessary recovery operations. We urge all drivers to exercise caution while on the roads and to follow traffic rules to prevent such unfortunate incidents in the future.
