Death on the A2 Germany's Lethal Autobahn

Firefighters are desperately trying to get to the trapped BMW driver, but all help is in vain. Accidents like this are just everyday occurrences for the rescue workers on the A2 autobahn between Hanover and Berlin. 120,000 vehicles race along the most important connection between eastern and western Europe every day. Crashes occur around 3,000 times a year in the jurisdiction of the Braunschweig autobahn police alone. This is a report about the everyday work of rescue teams along one of Germany’s most dangerous travel routes.
