Pedestrian hit by car at zebra crossing in Ostfildern!
A tragic accident occurred on Tuesday evening, July 2, 2025, in Ostfildern, more precisely in the Nellingen district, where a 31-year-old pedestrian was hit by a car while crossing a zebra crossing. The incident happened around 7:45 p.m. when the driver, a 49-year-old, was driving on Stuttgarter Straße towards the exit of the town. After driving through the roundabout with Horbstrasse, the young woman crossed the pedestrian crossing from left to right when the accident began.
As a result of the collision, the pedestrian fell to the ground and fortunately only suffered minor injuries. The emergency services were quickly on site and took her to a hospital for outpatient treatment, where she received an examination. The exact cause of the accident is still unclear and is being investigated by investigators.
Accidents at zebra crossings: An increasing problem
Another incident in Ostfildern that occurred on a Wednesday morning was similar, when a 47-year-old man drove into a roundabout and hit a 67-year-old pedestrian in the zebra crossing. In this case too, the woman was lucky and only sustained minor injuries. The emergency services took her to a clinic for treatment and there appeared to be no damage to the vehicle. These recurring accidents should make us all think again and draw attention to road safety.
The comprehensive data on traffic accident statistics is not only used for analysis, but is also crucial for planning future traffic safety measures. It is up to road users to show each other more consideration. Whether pedestrians or drivers - everyone has to show a good hand when dealing with each other in order to prevent such accidents.
We will continue to monitor developments surrounding these accidents and hope that the number of injured pedestrians at zebra crossings will decrease significantly in the future. So stay alert and drive carefully!
