Serious accident in Ulm: E-scooter collides head-on with VW!

In the afternoon, a serious traffic accident occurred in Schmiedstrasse. A 14-year-old young person and a seven-year-old girl sat on an e-scooter when she got the opposite lane for so far unclear reasons. At that moment they collided head-on with a VW station wagon that was directed by a 39-year-old driver.

The force of the impact was devastating: the 14-year-old was thrown onto the windshield via the bonnet while the younger child fell onto the street. Both girls suffered serious injuries. A rescue helicopter brought the 14-year-old to a clinic while the seven-year-old girl was transported with an ambulance. Fortunately, the inmates of the VW were not injured.

The accident has caused considerable damage: the e-scooter is estimated at around 500 euros, the VW at around 5,000 euros. The car had to be towed and the road was closed during the accident recording, but could be released later. The police have started an investigation into the course of the accident.
