Traffic accident in Werl: Cyclist in collision slightly injured

on Saturday morning, exactly at 11:35 a.m., there was a traffic accident in Werl that brought some injuries to a cyclist, a 64-year-old woman from the region. While she drove the K18N / K18 / Feldrain roundabout with her pedelec and was traveling towards Werl Büderich, the incident occurred with a 75-year-old driver from Bad Sassendorf.

The older woman drove her VW Tiguan and wanted to enter the roundabout at the same time. Unfortunately, she did not notice the cyclist in time. In an attempt to avoid a collision, the 64-year-old avoided the left edge of the road, but was not lucky: contact with the car could no longer be prevented, and the cyclist fell to the ground and injured it easily.

circumstances of the accident

traffic accidents between cyclists and drivers are not uncommon, but they keep worrying about safety on our streets. The misunderstanding between the two road users caused an incident here that made the risk of injury clear for the cyclist. It is reported that the traffic situation in and around roundabouts can often be challenging, both for drivers and cyclists. Many road users may not be aware of the necessary caution in these areas.

The 64-year-old cyclist, who was slightly injured, apparently received immediate medical help. It is not only important that the accident victim is cared for, but also the circumstances that lead to such incidents should be kept in mind. This could include in future sensitive measures for drivers and cyclists to increase the safety in road traffic.

The incident shows how important permanent attention is. Drivers must be particularly careful when entering the traffic circle in order to take into account the increased traffic density and the possible presence of cyclists. Cyclists, on the other hand, should also always pay attention to their surroundings and drive defensively to avoid such dangerous situations.
