Rushed truck driver collision: swift moving truck slams into bus in bustling market square
In the heart of Rostock's Reutershagen district, an unexpected incident unfolded at a normally bustling marketplace. The events of the day have left the community in shock, as a lorry, driven by a 46-year-old individual, caused significant damage in a series of collisions.
The drama began at a roundabout, where the truck, veering off course, drove over a planted island, knocking down a tree and bushes. The truck's journey continued, with it driving over bollards, a bench, and eventually colliding with a stationary bus in a turning loop. The collision with the bus caused an axle of the truck to break, bringing the out-of-control vehicle to a halt against a lamppost.
Eyewitness accounts suggest that the truck driver had a seizure just before the accident, a theory supported by the police who are treating the incident as a medical emergency. Fortunately, the bus involved in the incident had no passengers at the time, as reported by the police. A pedestrian, jumping to safety to avoid being hit by the out-of-control truck, managed to avoid the truck by jumping out of the way.
The other two men, the bus driver and the transport company employee, remained unharmed. The truck driver was taken to the hospital with minor injuries, while the investigation into the incident is ongoing. The police estimate the damage caused by the incident to be around 180,000 euros, with the accident truck being towed away using a special vehicle.
Investigations into the incident are ongoing, with the police yet to disclose the truck driver's name. It is known that the driver lost control of his vehicle due to acute health problems, but there is no specific information about medication intake or a pre-existing medical condition.
The marketplace in the Rostock district of Reutershagen was empty at the time of the incident, with no stalls set up. Despite the chaos, the community can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that no serious injuries were reported. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the unexpected nature of life and the importance of road safety.
