Serious motorcycle accident on B42: Driver fights for his life!
A serious traffic accident caused a stir on Sunday morning on the B42 between Kamp-Bornhofen and Kestert. At 10:18 a.m. the police in St. Goarshausen were informed of the collision between a motorcyclist and a car, which led to a comprehensive closure of the federal highway two minutes later. Emergency services were quickly on site and intensively cared for the injured motorcyclist, who suffered serious injuries, as Tixio reports.
The B42 remained completely closed in both directions while the accident was being recorded. This led to significant traffic volumes in the area as the diversions had to be used by both residents and travelers. The police have started investigating the accident and will announce further details at a later date, as the Rhein-Zeitung points out.
