Senior accident in Drosa leads to the withdrawal of the driver's license

An incident in Drosa recently caused a sensation when a 94-year-old driver was given his driving license after an accident with a driver's flight. The Anhalt-Bitterfeld police justified this measure with "apparently available intellectual and physical defects" of the driver.

what happened?

on Saturday, July 13th, the accident in Drosa occurred around 11.30 a.m. The 94-year-old driver of a VW wanted to turn from Drosaer Lindenstraße to Wulfener Strasse. He got into oncoming traffic and collided with a Mercedes transporter who was controlled by a 39-year-old driver. The 94-year-old driver then removed the scene of the accident. The total damage was estimated at around 12,000 euros.

who was involved?

The police met the 94-year-old driver shortly after the accident and carried out a survey. Due to the determined defects, his driver's license was drawn in and an investigation was initiated.

why is it important?

This incident again makes a lightly discussion about the discussion about the driving suitability of older road users. The focus here is on safety in road traffic, and the authorities are trying to minimize potential risks. The withdrawal of the driver's license due to mental and physical defects is a step to ensure the safety of all road users.
