Ghostrad in Rosenheim: memorial for deceased cyclists

A tragic incident shakes Rosenheim: An 84-year-old cyclist died after a heavy collision with a car in the outer Munich Straße. The accident occurred in July, and despite intensive medical treatment, he succumbed to his injuries three weeks later. To remember Dieter Stahl, a ghost wheel, a white bike with fresh flowers and a plaque, was placed at the scene of the accident. The moving call "We miss you" aims not only to honor the deceased, but also to point out the dangers in road traffic.

The idea of the ghost wheel originally comes from the USA and has gained a foothold in many cities in Europe. Stahl's family wants this memorial to increase the sensitivity in dealing with cyclists. It is emphasized that a bicycle helmet might have saved the life of the talented paraglider and mountaineer after the accident opened his head on the street. His family hopes that the list of ghost wheel is being stimulated more and more people to wear a helmet while cycling to prevent future tragedies.
