- Train operator neglecting road rules, operating vehicle on railway tracks
Hey there!
In the wee hours of the day, a shocking incident unfolded at a level crossing in Süderbrarup, district of Schleswig-Flensburg. A driver collided head-on with a construction train, sending shockwaves through the local community.
As reported by the Federal Police, the construction work planned at the level crossing was already underway, with essential barriers in place. The construction train was engaged in a work run when, all of a sudden, a car hurtled towards it. The unfortunate driver, a 34-year-old, was trapped in her vehicle and required assistance from the fire department to extricate her. She managed to escape with minor injuries, though was transported to the hospital as a precaution.
The Federal Police investigators are now busy figuring out the cause of this unfortunate event. The team is delving into several aspects, including whether the traffic light system at the level crossing was functioning, whether it was deactivated due to construction work, or if human error was to blame for the smash-up. The railway line from Flensburg to Kiel was temporarily shut down for approximately an hour and a half.
