Red Escape! Postman experiences scandalous accident in Kulmbach

On December 17, 2024, a hit-and-run incident occurred on Hollergasse in Kulmbach, which had expensive consequences for a postman. At around 2:20 p.m., while the Deutsche Post employee was delivering packages, a red car tried to drive past his postal bus. Despite the postman's extensive attempts to stop the driver and make him aware of the narrow space, he ignored all warnings and collided with the rear of the postal bus. According to the report of Bayreuther Tagblatt This careless drive caused material damage of around 500 euros.

The driver of the red vehicle stopped after around 50 meters to check the damage to his wing mirror. But when the postman approached him, the person who caused the accident continued his journey without leaving his personal details. The Kulmbach police are now looking for witnesses to the incident and ask the driver to call 09221/609-0. This behavior raises questions, especially in view of similar situations in which victims are often frustrated by the slow processes, as in the case of another article in Legal forum, where an injured party reported on the tough claims settlement process. An accident involving a postal van was also discussed there, in which the injured party finally sought help and was concerned about the slow progress made by his lawyer.

In this current case, however, the focus is squarely on the driver's escape and the associated problems for the postman, whose job and financial security are now threatened by the unlawful behavior of another road user. The request for information from possible witnesses remains in order to clarify this incident and hold the driver responsible.
