Shock: Car catches fire after accident on the B252 near Warburg!

WARBURG (GERMANY): This morning there was a dramatic traffic accident on the B252 at the motorway entrance to the A44 in Warburg. A 76-year-old man was driving a red Jeep from the direction of Warburg at 9:10 a.m. when he failed to pay attention to the oncoming Chevrolet Aveo of a 42-year-old woman when he turned. The collision was unavoidable, resulting in the Chevrolet bursting into flames in the engine compartment, as fireworld.at reported.

Fortunately, both drivers were able to get out of their cars in time despite the aggressive flames. They only suffered minor injuries and were immediately taken to hospital. Firefighters were quickly on scene to extinguish the burning vehicle, but were unable to prevent the Chevrolet from burning out completely. The total damage is estimated at around 30,000 euros, and both cars are no longer drivable and had to be towed away. While the fire was being extinguished, the B252 had to be completely closed for around an hour News.de reported.

This incident once again shows the dangers of road traffic, especially on motorway entrances. The accident not only resulted in significant property damage, but also necessitated urgent attention to road safety, particularly in busy areas. It is hoped that such accidents can be prevented in the future in order to improve the latest statistics on traffic accidents and personal injuries.
