    Default Spyder RT crash in Germany

    Spyder crash in Germany

    Details

    In Hamburg-Altengamme, an eleven-year-old boy died in a traffic accident with a trike, the father and the driver were seriously injured.

    According to the police, the eleven-year-old and his 41-year-old father got off at the Gammer Weg stop around 1 p.m. When they wanted to cross the street behind the bus, they were hit by the three-wheeled motorcycle.

    The trike driver also had her son with her

    The child was fatally injured and the man was taken to hospital with serious injuries. The 43-year-old trike driver was also seriously injured, her 15-year-old son suffered minor injuries as a passenger.

    Emergency chaplains take care of bus passengers

    According to the fire brigade, emergency chaplains took care of at least ten passengers on the bus who apparently had to watch the accident. The exact course of the accident has not yet been clarified. The police photographed the scene of the accident with a 3D scanner and are asking witnesses to come forward.

    Main dike closed

    The Altengamme main dike has meanwhile been closed in both directions between Altengamme and the Borghorster Elbe dike. Just two weeks ago, a motorcyclist had an accident at the Borghorster Elbdeich / Altengammer Hauptdeich intersection, collided with a car, crashed onto the street and was seriously injured in a clinic.

    Prayers go out to all involved ..... I've investigated hundreds possibly a thousand + accidents during my 35 year career. At the end of the second paragraph the OP states " THEY WANTED TO CROSS THE STREET BEHIND THE BUS " .... we don't know yet in what direction the trike was going, but I have a feeling that the Trike opr. may not have seen those people that were hit ..... much more info needed. ....Mike

    I think all of us feel more secure by the three wheels. But we always have to remember that it can be dangerous. Everyone wear the proper riding gear and helmet and be safe. So sad to hear about the loss of life especially an 11 year old.
