A retaining wall failed along the A13 autobahn in Schonberg, Austria. Few details are available at this point, but the wall did fall onto a passing truck, killing the driver. Snowmelt was likely a factor in the failure. Rocks and debris continued to fall on the roadway while rescue and cleanup efforts were underway. [Source: The Landslide Blog. Image: oe24.at]
