Illegal Street Racing Accusations in Lübeck
In Lübeck-St. Lorenz, a serious accident occurred on Schwartauer Allee, between Triftstraße and Helgolandstraße. The incident involved four damaged vehicles, including an Opel Corsa and a VW Golf, leaving one driver severely injured.
According to preliminary investigations, the accident was the result of an overtaking attempt. The Opel Corsa, driven by a 28-year-old individual, collided with the VW Golf, driven by a 26-year-old driver. The impact of the collision propelled the VW Golf about 80 meters ahead, where it eventually collided with two parked vehicles.
Both drivers were suspected of aggressive driving, excessive speed, and driving under the influence of intoxicants. Consequently, both drivers were temporarily banned from operating motor vehicles. A blood sample was ordered for the Opel Corsa driver, and one was taken from the injured VW Golf driver.
The VW Golf was secured by the police due to suspected illegal technical modifications. The exact nature of these modifications has yet to be disclosed.
The accident resulted in approximately 18,000 euros of material damage.
Further investigations, including the exact reconstruction of the accident, will be conducted by the 2nd Police Precinct in Lübeck. The police have advised readers to visit the website PM for more news from Lübeck and the surrounding area.
