accidents with trams are unfortunately not uncommon in Berlin. Due to the dense development and the dense road network, there are many potential danger spots where collisions can occur between trams, cars and other vehicles. The trams in Berlin run on their own track network, which is partly secured by traffic lights and barriers. Nevertheless, accidents always occur because drivers and other road users often disregard the right of way or underestimate the speed of the trams.

These accidents have an impact on traffic safety and local public transport in Berlin. In accidents with trams, there are often considerable delays and impairments in tram traffic, which in turn has an impact on the timetable and punctuality of the passengers. In addition, there can be disabilities in road traffic, since accident sites often have to be blocked for a long time in order to be able to carry out the accident recording and enhancement.

The current accident in Berlin-Weißensee once again illustrates the need for increased attention and mindfulness in road traffic. It is important that all road users observe the right of way and take them into account in order to avoid accidents. In addition, drivers should not underestimate the speed of trams and keep sufficient distance to be able to brake in good time.
