The beginning of winter causes traffic problems in the Erzgebirge: Audi ends up in a ditch

evening – Cold is coming this weekend Ore Hills behind.

On Saturday night, the rain also turned to snow in the lower regions. A thin blanket of snow was formed up to an altitude of 500 meters.

While some may be happy about the beautiful pictures of snow-covered landscapes, the new onset of winter makes drivers already on summer tires break a sweat.

The snow was already causing traffic problems on the roads in the morning. This is also the case on S260 between Geyer and Zwönitz. Many drivers who apparently were already running without winter tires were unable to make any progress.
