A truck crashed through a median near the Petueltunnel, injuring three and causing significant traffic delays in both directions.

A truck traveling west on Munich's Mittlerer Ring crashed through a median barrier and entered the opposite lanes near the Petueltunnel around 1:40 PM local time.
The accident involved multiple vehicles, including five cars, and resulted in three reported injuries, with the truck driver sustaining serious injuries.
Eastbound lanes were completely closed for accident investigation, while westbound traffic was reduced to a single lane for a period of time.
