Accident at Wittstock: Motorists dodge wild animals and rams Baum
drivers tries to avoid animals and drives against tree
In the night of Saturday there was a traffic accident near Wittstock/Dosse, in the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district, in which a driver collided with a tree. The driver tried to avoid several wild animals that unexpectedly crossed the road. According to the police, the incident occurred on the route between the towns of Heiligengrabe and Kemnitz.
The collision with the tree not only caused damage to the driver's vehicle, but also raises questions about safety in road traffic, especially in rural areas where wild changes occur frequently. Drivers are often confronted with suddenly appearing animals, which can lead to dangerous situations in many cases.
To avoid such accidents, it is advisable to drive particularly carefully during dusk and at night. The local police appeals to all road users to be aware of the danger and to drive defensively, especially in regions in which game can be found frequently.
The authority also increasingly relies on clarification in order to raise awareness of game change. In recent years there have been several initiatives to improve traffic safety, such as the installation of wild warning signs and the implementation of information campaigns. Nevertheless, it remains a challenge to reduce the number of game accidents, and it is the responsibility of every driver to be prepared for it.
In order to minimize accidents like this, drivers should be particularly careful in forested or rural areas and slow down in time when they see wild animals on the street. The remarkable risk that runs out of game changes requires increased vigilance and consideration of road users.
