Wheel loader crashes into BMW: driver injured, Mahdentalstrasse closed!
A traffic accident occurred in Sindelfingen on Wednesday morning, which resulted in a wheel loader operation. A wheel loader collided with the driver's door of a BMW, which was probably stopped at a red light. The wheel loader turned from an adjacent road construction site and hit the stationary vehicle. According to szbz.de, the fire department had to move out to free the driver from her vehicle. She only suffered minor injuries and was taken to hospital for examination.
While the accident was being recorded, the police completely closed Mahdentalstrasse in order to carry out the investigation and clean-up work. The exact cause of the accident is still unclear, but the situation suggests that the wheel loader did not pay attention to the traffic when turning.
