School bus dispute escalated: second grader injured in the event of an accident!

In an alarming incident in Mettmann, a second grader was hit by a car on a pedestrian crossing on Meiersberger Strasse on Tuesday morning. The driver, who came from Ostpreußenstrasse and wanted to turn left, had her own child in the car, who was also to be brought to school. The boy was slightly injured and the district police confirmed the accident while the cause is still being determined.

This incident is done at a critical time when the city of Mettmann had previously planned to delete the school bus for the children from Obschwarzbach. After protests by parents before the autumn holidays, however, the administration had announced that they will find new transport options for school children by the next spring. The situation has further fueled the existing outrage of the parents in Obschwarzbach, since the security of their children is now even more urgent. Details of this incident are still sparse, but reports rp-online.de that the investigation into the cause of the accident is running.
