- 22-year-old biker fatally injured in a collision with a car
A young motorcyclist lost his life in the Göppingen district following a collision with a car. The 22-year-old biker was traveling on the B297 near Albershausen when a car turned onto the federal road, as reported by the police. The motorcyclist had the right of way.
The collision occurred despite both men presumably braking. The young man was thrown from his motorcycle and sustained severe injuries. Despite resuscitation efforts, he died at the scene of the accident.
The public prosecutor's office ordered an expert opinion to determine the exact course of the accident. The federal road was fully closed following the morning accident.
The car driver might need to explain their actions leading up to the collision with the motorcycle riders. Despite wearing safety gear, the impact of the crash left lasting effects on the motorcycle riders' gear.
