Serious accident on A6: driver in mortal danger, Gaffer punished!

A serious traffic accident caused a stir on the A6 in the direction of Heilbronn on Tuesday afternoon. Several vehicles were involved in a serious incident, which took place in the Roth district, shortly after the “Kammersteiner Land” rest area. Loud TAG24 were involved in a total of four saddle lipers and a car. The collision was caused by a traffic jam that forced the vehicle to brake.

First feedback indicates that the VW Golf was badly damaged in the collision. He was literally "welcomed" when a subsequent truck pushed against him and pushed the car under a saddle winner. The driver's health is alarming - she was brought to the clinic in Heilbronn in acute danger to life by rescue helicopter. In addition to the Golf, a truck was also affected, which on a standing truck, which made the accident situation even more complicated.

a media -effective misfortune

The behavior of uninvolved road users who did not shy away and filmed and photographed the scene of the accident, despite the worst circumstances, were particularly frightening. Stefan Pfeiffer, the head of the Feucht Verkehrsinspection, commented stunned about the gaffers and reported that five or six people were reported by the emergency services due to their inappropriate behavior. This negative reaction to the accident causes additional resentment in public.

The exact cause of the accident has not yet been conclusively clarified, but it is known that the trailer of the truck was loaded with styrofoam, which may have a positive impact on the course of the accident. Fortunately, the driver's cab of the VW Golf remained relatively undamaged, which represents additional positive aspects in an otherwise tragic situation. The first aiders on site were praised for their quick reaction, which can often be crucial in such moments.

The background of traffic accidents in Europe

traffic accidents are a serious problem that costs countless people in the EU every year or seriously injured. Statistics show that between 2010 and 2020 the number of road traffic fats in Europe fell by 36 percent. Nevertheless, the challenge remains great, because in 2019 22,800 people died in road traffic. In this regard, there is plenty of space for work to create safer roads and avoid further tragic accidents. According to Europarl , many young people between 18 and 24 years are still affected by traffic accidents.

Although these statistics show that progress is made and that a decline in road dead can be observed in many EU member states, the incident on the A6 remains an urgent memorial. The tragedy illustrates that safety in road traffic should be top priority - both and especially for those who move on these streets.
