Emergency Call Ends in Collision

While crossing the busy intersection between Wiesenstraße and the main artery “Am Anger,” the traffic light for the ambulance was red.
At the same time, a 21-year-old motorcyclist entered the intersection from Wiesenstraße. Apparently, the young rider did not notice the visual and acoustic special signals of the approaching emergency vehicle. As a result, a collision occurred between the two vehicles in the intersection area.

This vehicle transported the injured young woman to the nearby Universitätsklinikum Jena for further medical evaluation and treatment.
