background and statistics on traffic accidents

The A2 is one of the main traffic arteries between East and West Germany and connects the Ruhr area with the Berlin Ring. High traffic often lead to traffic jams, disabilities and serious accidents. These roads are particularly susceptible to the accident in unfavorable weather conditions or simply by fatigue by the travelers. As a rule, such accidents always result in considerable disabilities that can lead to long waiting times. Reports of similar incidents are published regularly in the media and can be reached via official police reports, such as tag24 Notes.

The comprehensive traffic accident statistics not only serves information, but also as a basis for measures in legislation, traffic education, road construction and in vehicle technology. The aim is to analyze the structures of the accident and to identify dependencies between accident -determining factors. This makes it clear how important it is to promote awareness of traffic safety in order to avoid tragic accidents such as those in Velden.

Such an event warns us all for caution in road traffic. Even if we are often hectic in everyday life, we should note that every moment can be decisive. The loss of a life makes it clear that we all have to take responsibility together and pay attention to each other in order to prevent such tragedies in the future.
