Shocking turn: traffic accident with seriously injured drivers in Hellenhahn-Schellenberg!
In the dark of the Monday evening, on October 7, 2024, a serious traffic accident occurred on the B255 between Höhn and Hellenhahn-Schellenberg. Around 7:35 p.m. there was a serious incident in which a small van and a moped were involved. The misfortune happened outside of closed towns, where the adverse weather conditions with rain and a lack of view made the situation even more difficult.
Police investigations show that the driver of the small van overlooked the slow -moving moped driver. In order to avoid a collision, the transporter driver tried to avoid the vehicle. In doing so, he lost control of his car, left the road to the left and overturned several times. It is noteworthy that despite the dramatic turn, there was no direct collision with the moped. The inmates of the van, both the driver and the passenger, did not remain without injuries and had to be saved from the vehicle seriously.
Rescue measures and investigations
The rescue workers, including the fire brigade, were promptly on site and were able to free both people from the vehicle. After the rescue operation, the injured were immediately transported to nearby hospitals, where they are currently treating. Unfortunately, after the first reports, the two men are currently unappealing, which increases concern about their state of health.
In the course of the police investigations, the suspicion was suspected that the driver might have been under the influence of alcohol or narcotics. In order to clarify this suspicion and to secure evidence, a blood sample was arranged by the driver. The results of this analysis will be crucial in order to completely reconstruct the course of the accident.
The B255 had to be closed for about two hours to carry out the accident recording and enable the rescue measures. This led to considerable traffic disruptions in the region, while the authorities informed the entire situation. The course of the investigation remains open, since further details on the exact cause of the accident and the circumstances that led to this tragic incident are collected.
