- Vehicle flips and slides for 150 meters, ultimately landing on its roof.
In Stuttgart, a guy losing control of his high-speed vehicle resulted in a rollover accident. The vehicle veered off the road, flipped upside down, and slid an additional 150 meters on its roof, as reported by authorities. The 27-year-old driver and his 53-year-old passenger both endured minor injuries and were transported to the hospital by emergency responders during daybreak.
The accident also caused the demolition of two traffic lights, as stated by the police spokesperson. Law enforcement officials discovered skid marks on the road, which indicate tire wear when a car slides across the pavement.
Initially, Heilbronner Street was fully blocked, then partially reopened towards the city exit. The U7 and U15 tram routes were also momentarily halted.
The damaged car had to be towed away from the scene of the accident. Despite the accident, the driver and passenger managed to escape with just minor damages to their own car.
