Both occupants were uninjured, total loss of his vehicle, severe property damage to the right-side guardrails, that is the result of a traffic accident on the A 62, direction Landstuhl, approximately 1500 m before the Türkismühle exit. On the afternoon of Pentecost Sunday, June 5, 2022, a 37-year-old member of the US Air Force was traveling on the A 62 together with his wife. On a wet road, he likely lost control of his Audi due to excessive speed on a downhill section at the beginning of a left curve. As a result, the car skidded against the right-side guardrails and came to a stop badly damaged in the right lane. The A 62 had to be partially closed for 90 minutes during the accident investigation. Members of the Baumholder Military Police were also involved in the accident investigation. The officers of the Nordsaarland Police Department conducting the investigation obtained a security deposit from the American citizen for the purpose of carrying out administrative offense proceedings (driving at an inappropriate speed).
