Report
The Winnweiler Fire Department was called to the A63 because oil was leaking from a small van there. Upon arrival, the firefighters found a van on the shoulder of the road from which large amounts of engine oil were leaking due to a mechanical failure.
The shoulder was secured against oncoming traffic, and the oil was absorbed using an oil absorbent. The driver had used a piece of clothing to prevent the oil from spreading onto the shoulder. After the scene was handed over to the highway patrol, the operation was concluded, and all personnel returned to their stations.
