An upset motorist gave the alert. This Wednesday, November 2, around 4pm, a resident of the northern Moselle was traveling on the A31 towards Metz-Thionville when he saw a vehicle coming in the opposite direction, up the Illange climb. According to him, it was a white Citroën C4, with two a priori men on board.
The car took the 3And lane, the one on the left, reserved for those who overtake uphill. “I was driving in the middle lane, the driver describes, the trucks were in the line of slow vehicles. I saw the C4 hit the guardrail after almost hitting my car, then engage in a U-turn. “
dented vehicle
In shock, the witness says he left the highway at the Knauf factory, only to take a break, stop and come to his senses. “I saw the two men again driving at high speed with their dented C4. “
On the spot, two patrols of the motorway group could not see anything. Even the first exploits of the images gave nothing. It is likely that the Citroën driver had just entered the A31 in the wrong direction, but for a short distance. The offending car has disappeared in the wild, near the roundabout that borders Knauf.
