Accident chaos on the B 251: scooters stolen, cars broken into!
On Thursday afternoon, a traffic accident occurred on the B 251 near Korbach, which was caused by a right-of-way error. A 23-year-old woman from Guxhagen wanted to drive onto the federal highway in her Ford Eco Sport, but overlooked the right-of-way of a Mazda driving towards Willingen, which was driven by a 58-year-old man from Dorfitter. The passenger in the Ford suffered minor injuries in the collision and had to be taken to hospital for treatment. Two passengers in the Mazda also suffered minor injuries, but did not require hospital treatment. Both vehicles suffered significant damage, as reported by nh24.de.
Traffic accidents like this are not only dangerous, but also important indicators of traffic safety on the roads. According to destatis.de, statistics about accidents serve to obtain reliable, comprehensive and differentiated data on the road safety situation. This data is fundamental for the development of measures in legislation, traffic education and road construction.
The safety situation in road traffic
The road traffic accident statistics from Destatis include detailed information on accidents, the people involved, vehicles and the causes of accidents. This information supports accident risk comparisons across transport sectors and forms the basis for state transport policy, particularly in the areas of infrastructure and road safety. Not only accidents involving personal injury or property damage are recorded, but also specific cases such as accidents during the transport of dangerous goods.
On the same day, on Thursday night, several criminal incidents were reported in Schwalmstadt-Ascherode. A yellow Piaggio scooter (THP125) was stolen. The value of the scooter was in the low three figures and it had previously been parked in front of a garage. On the same night, valuable GPS technology and tools were stolen from an agricultural property in Edermünde-Holzhausen.
These were a GPS receiver (Starfire) and two control monitors from a John Deere combine harvester, as well as several Makita tools, the total value of which is in the lower five-figure range. There were also vehicle break-ins in Ottrau. Unknown perpetrators broke the window of an Opel Astra and stole a wallet with cash and documents, causing damage of around 300 euros. Other vehicles that were unlocked or not adequately secured were ransacked. It remains unclear whether additional items were stolen, and police are asking witnesses to contact the Schwalmstadt police station.
