Two traffic accidents in Haßbergen: police warn of careless driving!
Haßbergen, Deutschland - On Friday evening, two traffic accidents in Haßbergen and Holtorf occurred in the Nienburg district. The first incident occurred around 9:19 p.m. when a 76-year-old man from Eystrup overlooked the approaching traffic when turning before a pizzeria. This led to a collision with another vehicle, whereby both the 76-year-old and another person had to be taken to the hospital injured, as the Nienburg police reported.
Only around 75 minutes later, a further accident occurred nearby, which fortunately went lightly. At the Holtorfer roundabout, at the "Asia World" restaurant, one driver had overlooked another due to carelessness. In this case, however, there were no injuries. The two accidents are examples of the worries in road traffic, which are also reflected in the accident statistics of the Haßberge district. According to information from NP-Coburg, there was a dramatic increase in accidents in 2021-a total of 2,393 accidents were registered, and an increase of 16.45 percent compared to the previous year. The accidents with personal injury that have also increased are particularly worrying.
factors of the increase
The police see several causes of these worrying numbers, including the increase in vehicles in the Haßberge district and the rising traffic volume. The vehicle stock in the Region has increased by 5.7 percent; An increase that inevitably goes hand in hand with an increase in accidents. According to reports, seniors and two -wheelers are particularly at risk, since these groups are more often involved in accidents and often seriously injure themselves.
In order to minimize such incidents in road traffic, the police employees have announced initiatives for traffic education. Prevention work is currently focusing on the safety of seniors and drivers with a migration background, especially with regard to the challenges of cycling. Shocking examples like the accidents on Friday illustrate urgency to take the traffic safety of all participants seriously and take further measures to reduce the dangers on the streets.
