An honest German motorist who stumbled across more than a million euros ($1.7 million) accidently dumped on a motorway handed the cash over to police.

The money was dropped by a cash transit van on a slip road near Bad Kissingen in Bavaria.

It was discovered by a
41-year-old military worker who handed the three suitcases of cash to police.
