Tailchaos on Lützner Straße: Car overturns and remains!

In the night of Wednesday, a serious accident occurred on Lützner Straße (B87) in the west of Leipzig. According to the LVZ Was a 31-year-old man at around 11:30 p.m. with his Ford from Markranstädt in the direction of Leipzig when his vehicle came off the street. He touched the guardrail, overturned and landed in the adjacent green area. Despite the severity of the incident, the driver was able to leave the car independently and only suffered minor injuries. The property damage amounts to around 21,000 euros. The cause of the accident has so far been unclear and Lützner Straße remained closed for several hours.

Only shortly after this incident there was another accident on the same street on Thursday morning. Loud Tag24 collided there shortly before 7.45 a.m., a VW and an Opel, due to a power failure that had affected the function of the traffic lights. The tram and bus connections were also disrupted by the incident. At the junction to Brünner Straße, between Neulindenau and Grünau, the passenger side of the Opel was badly damaged. For one of the people, it was necessary to be freed from the vehicle by rescue workers, with at least one involved injured. Lützner Straße was briefly completely closed, while the city, who was holding the city, was again in one lane after the rescue.

Entangled incidents and their consequences

The accumulation of traffic accidents in the region raises questions about traffic safety. The accident in the night before and the following collision in the morning reflect a precarious situation. The accidents not only occurred close together, but also geographically in the same place, which is caused by the residents. The lack of functional traffic lights, as with the second incident, contributes to increasing the risk of accident.

The police then investigate and the city administration is asked to take measures to ensure traffic safety. Allegedly, internal checks regarding the provision of emergency power units for traffic light systems and the regulation of traffic in the event of power outages are initiated.

Overall, it remains to be hoped that both the strict investigations by the police and the necessary preventive measures will help to prevent further traffic accidents in the future and to improve security on the streets in Leipzig, especially in the affected areas.
