Accident escape in Trostberg: 17-year-olds injured after collision

On Friday there was an incident in Trostberg, in the Traunstein district, which caused both the police and the residents. A 17-year-old from Altenmarkt was traveling on Traunsteiner Strasse at around 5:15 p.m.

The accident occurred when a car in front of the young driver had to brake due to traffic. The 17-year-old was initially able to stop behind the vehicle. Unfortunately, a subsequent car prevented this that remained without consequences. This vehicle came from behind and unfortunately pushed the young woman forward, so that she caught and fell the car standing in front of her.

The consequences of the accident

The driver of the car driving in front of her stopped and spoke briefly to the driver who had crashed, but showed no interest in leaving his contact details or claiming the damage incurred. Instead, he continued his journey without revealing further information. This raises questions, especially with regard to responsibilities in a traffic accident.

The vehicle behind the 17-year-old continued his journey in the same direction, i.e. in Altenmarkt, and left the injured driver behind. The fall resulted in the young woman was slightly injured and had to be taken to a nearby hospital for further examination. Fortunately, their injuries are not serious, but the shock of the incident remains.

Overall, the motorcycle caused a damage of around 300 euros, which is a significant sum for a young driver who may be dependent on your vehicle. This sum must be borne by those responsible, but which cannot be determined, since both the driver of the front car and the driver of the subsequent vehicle did not leave their personal details.

The Trostberg police inspection has taken up the investigation and asks the population for help. Witnesses who may have observed the incident are asked to report on 08621/9842-0. Your contribution could be crucial to identify these drivers and, if necessary, to be responsible.

accidents like this illustrate the risks lurking in road traffic and have increasingly underlined in recent years by the number of traffic accidents in the region. Visibility and consideration in road traffic are essential to ensure the safety of all road users.
