Photo: DPAThe giant blade of a wind turbine fell from the truck that was transporting it on Tuesday morning, squashing the cabin of another truck and completely shutting down traffic on a busy motorway. The blade was then shunted across the entire width of the Autobahn by the rear truck, with the cabin of the truck being badly crumpled in the collision. Photo: DPAPolice closed down the motorway in both directions, leading to a buildup of logjam for several kilometres. It is unclear at this stage how the blade can be taken away. Police say that the road will be reopened at the earliest on Tuesday afternoon.
