Head-on collision in Heidelberg: Two slightly injured after accident!

In Heidelberg, a serious traffic accident occurred on Neuenheimer Landstrasse, near the Old Bridge, on Friday afternoon, shortly after 2 p.m. A 62-year-old Audi Q5 driver crossed into the oncoming lane for an unknown reason, probably due to microsleep. There she encountered an Opel Astra that was being driven by a 38-year-old man. The result was a horrific head-on collision that left both drivers with minor injuries. Fortunately, a 13-year-old passenger in the Opel was uninjured, as both nachrichten-heute.de and newsflash24.de reported.

Consequences of the accident and investigations

The two injured drivers received immediate medical attention on site, but did not require hospitalization. The two vehicles were so badly damaged that they were no longer drivable and had to be towed away. The total material damage is estimated at around 19,000 euros. In order to carry out the accident investigation, the L534 was temporarily closed, which led to traffic disruptions in the region. The investigation into the exact cause of the accident is in full swing and is being intensively pursued by the authorities.
