Bad Krozingen (dpa / lsw) – And suddenly two beehives fell from a car onto the motorway: In an accident on the A5 in the Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald district, more than 20,000 bees are estimated to have been killed on Thursday night.
The beehives were probably not properly secured on the transport vehicle and had therefore come loose during the journey between Bad Krozingen and Hartheim / Heitersheim, the police said. A car following behind was unable to avoid it in time and ran over a beehive.
The “extensive cleaning” of the road in the direction of Basel took several hours, according to the information.
