It was just a short break that the lady used to go to the toilet. When she went outside, she was horrified to see that the car and relatives had disappeared, the daily newspaper Blick reported.

A driver then alerted the police that an “angry older lady without a jacket” was stuck at the rest stop. This was a big problem for the elderly woman considering it was December weather and it was only a parking lot with toilets and no store to warm up.
The woman was traveling with her 67-year-old brother, who was driving the car, and his wife. Neither of them noticed that the back seat was empty as they left the rest stop. They only discovered it in Switzerland, just outside Zurich, about a three-hour drive from the parking lot.
They all met again at the police station in Wiedergeltingen in southern Germany. However, the woman’s brother and sister-in-law had to return there via a piece of Switzerland and the westernmost tip of Austria.
