Woman in Tübingen from Zug recorded: serious injuries after crossing the track

Tübingen, Deutschland - A worrying incident occurred yesterday at Tübingen Central Station. A 39-year-old woman wanted to cross the tracks when she was hit by a regional train. The train, which was around 60 km/h, could not stop in time despite an emergency braking. The woman was seriously injured and had to be taken care of immediately. It is tragic that this was already the second dangerous incident on this day, reports ZVW.

The first incident occurred in the afternoon when an unknown man crossed the tracks from platform 2 to platform 1 and also overlooked a approach. This man could not be recorded by a quick braking of the train, but then fled. In both cases, the federal police are investigating for dangerous interventions in rail traffic, which is known to be a serious crime, as well as on [GEA] (https://www.gea.de/blaulicht_artikel ,-am-t%C3%BCBinger-Bahnhof-%C3%BCber-leieben-gee-e-heinhwerhren-_arid.7040944.html) is pointed out.

The dangers of the track area

stays in the track area are extremely dangerous, not only for those directly involved. Trains often approach silently and can need several hundred meters to hold. The federal police have therefore urgently warned and urges not to enter the tracks. A dangerous intervention in rail traffic is recorded in German law under § 315 StGB. This paragraph is one of the common crimes and can be punished with prison terms between six months and ten years, as is explained in detail on [wikipedia] (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEGI/AC3%A4HRICHENE_INTE_IN_DEN_BA. In view of these incidents, it is extremely important that all travelers are aware of the dangers in the track area and take the necessary precautions. The incident at Tübingen Central Station shows once again: A short moment of carelessness can result in serious consequences.

In addition, the railway line between Tübingen and Hechingen was closed for around an hour, which brought considerable inconvenience for travelers. On -site emergency services took care of the passengers on the train and provided them with drinks to take the circumstances into account.

The incidents on Thursday are not isolated and should be understood as a serious appeal to all citizens to always move carefully and carefully in the area of ​​railway tracks. Every dangerous intervention not only carries the risk for the person concerned, but also endangers the safety of all travelers.
