Cyclists fall by car after an accident: Tesla escapes!

An 18-year-old cyclist had a dangerous accident in Hamm-Herringen on Tuesday morning when he was touched by a passing car on the Holzstrasse around 5:50 a.m. As he drove north, the car, presumably a Tesla, touched the handlebars of his bike, which led to the cyclist crashed into a ditch. The driver continued his escape without taking care of the injured person.

Although the cyclist was only slightly injured, no emergency services were alerted. During the accident, the police found that the cyclist had not attached any lighting or reflectors to his bike, which particularly endangered him in the dark season. The police appeal to all cyclists to check their lighting to safely participate in road traffic
