Truck driver allegedly causes multiple car damages according to Polish authorities' report.
In an unexpected incident on the evening of August 27, 2025, a collision occurred at Holstentor in Lübeck involving a city bus and a Volkswagen Passat. The driver of the VW, a 75-year-old man from Leipzig, is currently under investigation by Lübeck police for causing dangerous driving by improperly changing lanes.
According to the latest updates, the driver is also suspected of endangerment of road traffic due to alcohol consumption. A preliminary breath alcohol test showed a result of 1.1 per thousand, leading the authorities to order a blood test for further confirmation.
The accident resulted in damages to a 33-year-old's VW, but it could not be definitively determined at the scene if all damages were from the accident or if they were pre-existing. The police are seeking information about any other damaged vehicles that may have been involved in the incident.
