Tragic accident near Perleberg: three dead and several injured!

On Saturday afternoon there was a tragic traffic accident on the B189 between Perleberg and Weisen, which plunged the region into deep sadness. Five vehicles were involved in the incident: two trucks, two cars and a motorcycle. Three people were killed in the collision, including two men and a woman. In addition, three other people were seriously injured, as Bild reports.

The exact circumstances and cause of the accident have not yet been determined. In order to provide clarity, the public prosecutor's office commissioned an accident report. Unfortunately, the fatalities have not yet been identified, adding to the tragedy of the situation.

Closure of the B189 and cleaning work

After the serious accident, the B189 initially remained completely closed because the road was heavily polluted as a result of the collision. The road was only reopened on Sunday at 2:20 p.m., so that traffic is slowly but surely starting to move again.

Such accidents, like the recent one on the B189, highlight the importance of road safety statistics. According to data from the Federal Statistical Office, traffic accident statistics aim to obtain reliable and comprehensive information about accidents in road traffic. The results play an important role in legislation, traffic education, road construction and vehicle technology. They provide information about the structures of accidents and the dependencies between various loss-causing factors, as the destatis.de page shows.

Road safety in Europe

But it's not just a problem on our doorstep. At the European level, the EU deals comprehensively with road safety. Information on road safety and accident statistics is available via the europa.eu platform, which helps to create safe traffic conditions. Each country therefore contributes to improving road safety and working towards reducing the number of road accidents.

The events on the B189 are a warning example of how important it is to continue working on road safety. Let's work together to ensure that this doesn't become a habit.
