Senior seriously injured in Rosenheim: pedestrian accident shocks the city!
On Tuesday, October 28, 2025, a serious traffic accident occurred in Rosenheim that shocked the local community. At around 4:30 p.m., a 60-year-old driver wanted to turn left from Happinger Strasse onto Kufsteiner Strasse when she hit an 80-year-old pedestrian. He crossed the road when the traffic light turned green for him. But the traffic light also showed the green light for the driver, which led to the tragic collision.
The driver apparently did not notice the pedestrian and hit him with her vehicle. The 80-year-old was seriously injured, particularly in the head and upper body area. Fortunately, there is no danger to life. After initial treatment at the scene of the accident, the senior was taken to the Rosenheim Clinic, where he continues to be cared for.
Investigations initiated
The damage caused to the 60-year-old's car is estimated at around 1,500 euros. The police have also initiated proceedings against the driver for negligent bodily harm. The exact circumstances that led to this tragic incident are now being investigated.
