Previously, four cars were driven over the obstacle that looked like a ski jump. Four people were slightly injured, the damaged car. Josef Seebacher, spokesman for the Highway South Bavaria, said the "Bavarian Newspaper", the road on the stretch of the A93 was broken within seconds. "It was not until ten minutes before the accident is driven by a control vehicle," he told the paper.

"A very difficult problem"

Experts speak in the loss of "blow-ups". Were mainly affected sections with concrete slabs, Seebacher said. Here, the plates expand so far that they abut each other and a broken edge is created. "The fact that this occurs so quickly in so many places today, is exceptional. All road users are urged to drive with extreme caution on all routes concrete."

The dangerous blow-ups occurred in the past few days to several sections of motorway in Germany. Among other things, the Heat blew a piece of the A8 at Remchingen near Karlsruhe or the A7 in Baden-Wuerttemberg. In Bavaria, the road curved to the A3, A7, A92 and A94 motorways.

According to the Head of Unit of the General Directorate of Highways Regensburg, Christian Unzner, there are usually no outward signs where blow-ups could arise. "We can respond only if it has already happened - a very difficult problem," said the Unzner "Bavarian Newspaper".
