Traffic chaos in Stendal: pedestrian injured after accident!
On November 11, 2025, a traffic accident occurred in Schönhausen, which not only shocked residents, but also resulted in minor injuries to an 85-year-old pedestrian. A 50-year-old was driving his Dacia from the direction of Fischbeck and overlooked the old lady who was on the road. The collision resulted in a fall, which meant the pedestrian had to be taken to hospital, but fortunately she escaped with minor injuries. Such incidents remind us how important it is to be vigilant on the road.
A little later, on the same day, there was another incident on Bruchstrasse in Stendal. Here, a 23-year-old was caught during a traffic stop with a positive rapid drug test for cannabis. The officials prohibited him from continuing his journey and took a blood sample. Administrative offense proceedings were initiated. These events shed light on the issue of road safety and drug driving, which the Association against alcohol and drugs in road traffic e.V. comprehensively explained. The non-profit association aims to combat the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs and actively promotes traffic education.
Speed controls and traffic safety
Today, November 12, 2025, the police will carry out speed checks on the B189 near Geestgottberg from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. 27 vehicles were found that had exceeded the maximum permitted speed of 50 km/h. The fastest driver was recorded at 93 km/h. Speeding is a major cause of road accidents and highlights the need for such controls to make roads safer.
The work of BADS is particularly relevant here, as the association not only educates, but also promotes research on this topic. The focus is on raising awareness about the dangers of alcohol and other intoxicating substances. Only through a joint effort can we sustainably improve road safety in our cities and communities.
What is also interesting in this context is the model of the “principles of compulsory enforcement” in other countries, such as those used by the National Bank of Serbia be practiced. This institution has the right to initiate payments from debtors without their consent, which shows how different countries deal with financial obligations and their enforcement. These measures could potentially also provide ideas for combating traffic offenders by creating more transparent rules and information.
Finally, it remains to be hoped that road safety will be improved through increased controls and comprehensive information, and that the people affected, such as the injured pedestrian, will soon fully recover.
