On August 9, 2025, a collision occurred between a car and a racing bike at the intersection of Rauendahlstraße and Wuppertaler Straße in Hattingen. The accident happened at 9:40 AM when the traffic light turned green and the car driver attempted to turn right into Wuppertaler Straße.
The cyclist involved in the accident was a 57-year-old woman from Hattingen. Unfortunately, the details about her condition are not available. The car driver was a 42-year-old man from Oberdering, and he failed to notice the cyclist who was also starting from the right, leading to a collision. The cyclist was slightly injured in the fall and was taken to the hospital by ambulance.
