Pedestrian in Berlin Wedding run over by truck: Mrs. Life -threatening

A 71-year-old pedestrian was run over by a truck on Wednesday morning in Wedding and was seriously injured. The accident occurred at the intersection of Luxemburger and Amrumer Straße at 11.10 a.m. When turning, the truck driver overlooked the woman who was about to cross the street. The senior fucked to the ground and was rolled over by the front tire of the car. She suffered life -threatening injuries to the head and legs and was operated on immediately. The intersection was closed until 2.30 p.m., which led to impairments in regular bus traffic. The police continue to determine the exact course of the accident.

according to a report by www.berliner-zeitung.de It always causes serious accidents between pedestrians and vehicles in Berlin. The road traffic situation in the city can often be difficult due to the high traffic and dense development. Older people in particular are at risk because they are often slower and may be able to assess the traffic situation worse.

The Berlin traffic authority is aware of this problem and continuously works on measures to improve traffic safety. This includes, for example, the expansion of pedestrian crossings, the adaptation of traffic lights and the sensitization of road users for the needs of pedestrians. Nevertheless, reducing traffic accidents remains a challenge, especially in heavily frequented areas such as wedding.

In order to minimize the risk of accidents, all road users, whether pedestrians or drivers, should always be vigilant and comply with the traffic rules. Pedestrians should always pay attention to traffic, especially when crossing roads and only enter the road at green. Drivers should adapt their speed and pay more attention to pedestrians, especially at known danger spots such as schools or senior citizens.
