Accident escape in Neuwie: Police are looking for witnesses after parking lot damage!
There were two notable traffic accidents in Neuwied-Engers that aroused the interest of the police and residents. On November 9, 2025, at 2:30 p.m., a blue VW Golf was damaged in the parking lot of the PENNY supermarket on Neuwieder Straße. The investigation is in full swing, but fortunately, attentive witnesses were able to identify the drivers responsible for the damage.
Another incident occurred between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. when an unknown vehicle rammed two cars parked on the side of the road “Am Güterbahnhof”. Investigators suspect it could be a truck. The total damage is estimated at a high four-digit amount, which causes a lack of understanding among residents.

The subject of hit-and-run accidents is a recurring problem in Germany. According to a study by Statista Between 2009 and 2024, the fitness to drive register recorded an alarming number of entries for hit-and-run accidents. A sad trend that affects safety on our roads and should also raise awareness among road users.
While the police are making great efforts to clarify the circumstances of the two accidents, it remains to be hoped that such incidents are a thing of the past and that we can count on safer roads. So stay alert and always be aware of your surroundings - this could not only benefit you, but others too.
