Shock in the morning: Truck accident hurt a woman on K7 in Oerrel!

In the Oberel in Lower Saxony, a traffic accident occurred on the morning of October 2, 2024, which led to a temporary closure of the street. At around 7:00 a.m., a 42-year-old truck driver from Poland wanted to reverse back into a dirt road with his truck and trailer. At that moment, a 21-year-old woman overlooked him with her VW from Hankensbüttel in the direction of Hankensbüttel.

The collision of the vehicles was inevitable. The VW driver was slightly injured and had to be taken to a clinic. Fortunately, the truck driver was not injured. The K7, on which the accident took place, was completely blocked for about 40 minutes, which led to traffic disabilities in the area.

damage and further details

The cause of the accident is currently the subject of investigations. With regard to the damage incurred, it should be noted that it is estimated at around 10,000 euros. The vehicles suffered significant damage to both the VW sedan and on the trailer of the truck. Such accidents illustrate the importance of attention in road traffic, especially when turning, since the view of subsequent vehicles and their intentions is often restricted.

traffic safety experts emphasize that such accidents can usually be avoided if drivers have a lot of attention in critical situations. In this case it turns out that the turning process of the truck driver was perceived too late, which also complicated the situation. The accident therefore illustrates how quickly there can be dangerous encounters on the streets.
