21.10.2019 - VN24 - Bus crashes against tree at full speed - driver trapped

VN24 - Sprockhövel / Germany - On Monday, about 16:15 o'clock, a 47-year-old bus driver in Sprockhövel turned right off the Wittener Straße, broke through the crash barrier with the bus and crashed against a tree. The driver was severely trapped by the impact. He had to be rescued by the fire brigade with heavy equipment. Because serious injuries could not be excluded to the driver, he was airlifted with a rescue helicopter to a clinic for further investigation. A 14-year-old and an 11-year-old passenger were also slightly injured in the bus. They were taken by ambulance to nearby hospitals. The Wittener Straße was completely closed for the time of the accident. According to the overall circumstances up to now, the driver's health is responsible for the accident.

Interessante Aufnahmen der Bergungsarbeiten. Zum Glück war der Bus nicht voll besetzt. Ich wünsche allen verletzten eine gute vollständige Genesung.

Desde mi punto de vista es posible que sufriera el conductor algún tipo de ataque repentino ,no tiene pinta de ser por sueño parece algún ataque .Es mi opinión

Why was it going full speed or is that clickbait and you were inside the bus looking at the speedometer.

Je suis époustouflé par la quantité et la variété des matériels dans les camions de secours : efficacité garantie !

[@audiblua4]

Speriamo che stiano tutti bene

woooowwww gefeliciteerd !!!!!

[@tomdenny8318]

The crash barrier seems completely under-designed, a proper barrier would have prevented impact with the tree.

La cosa incredibile di questo video e che con una botta cosi', il motore è rimasto acceso.
