Grim Road Mishap: Family of Four, Two Lives Lost on A19 Close to Rostock
Hey there! Let's dive into a sad tale of a recent highway accident.
On the bustling A19, approximately 50 kilometers south of Rostock, a family from Waren (Mecklenburg Lake District) suffered a heart-wrenching blow. This past Tuesday evening, around 8 PM, their vehicle veered off the road and collided with an emergency call post, then tumbled down an embankment and smashed into a tree.
Unfortunately, the 51-year-old father and their 9-year-old son couldn't escape the tragedy. The unfortunate duo perished at the scene, as reported by the police. The family seemed to be on their way back home from a seaside trip, wrapping up their Easter holiday in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
The 45-year-old mother, also present in the car, endured life-threatening injuries but was rushed to the hospital. This incident serves as a grim reminder of the unpredictable nature of our roads.
Upon investigation, it's believed the child was flung from the car upon impact. The adults inside the vehicle were trapped, and firefighters had to extricate them. The complex nature of the recovery operation, involving multiple local fire departments, led to disrupted traffic that extended into Wednesday morning.
Sadly, incidents like this are becoming all too common on German roads, sparking ongoing road safety concerns. In a similar incident last Friday on the A14 in Nordwestmecklenburg, another family lost control of their vehicle, causing the car to overturn repeatedly. Both parents perished, and their children were injured.
