According to the previous investigation and in consultation with the prosecutor, probably no case against a 23-year-old car driver from the northern district of Ebensburg initiated. She had captured on November 7, at 18.30 clock, between the district Moos and Market Schwab in the course of state highway a 66-year-old cyclist.
Whether the young woman can be blamed from a legal perspective, is still completely open, said the demand of the homeland paper of the head of the police inspection, Helmut. If an initiated professional assessment comes to new findings, but the facts may still change, added the PI chief. A final report can only be expected in four to five weeks. Earliest.
According to Helmut, the problem with the tragic incident of Wednesday last week is that there are no witnesses who can provide information on the actual course of the accident. Police report to the local press reported that at 6:30 pm a 66-year-old forester had traveled towards Forstinning. When he wanted to change from the right side of the road at the beginning of the bike path on the opposite route, he was overlooked and captured by the young female driver. The cyclist died at the scene of the accident.
The incident has sparked a debate on the internet, including: about the meaningfulness of wearing compelling reflective clothing with reflective tapes in the current season. From a policy point of view, according to Helmut, it is crystal clear that the dark season, especially for cyclists, requires clothing that helps others to recognize the wearer in traffic. Of course, in the present case, the clothing of the victim has been secured. Corresponding reflective aid he did not wear, so the Pioneer officials.
At the same time, the issue of political accountability has been discussed on the Internet, so far very cautiously. The incident is a wake-up call to local councils of market Schwab and Forstinning, it says, for example. Is it really necessary for a human being to die first, to realize that it is precisely at the said accident site that a speed limit is necessary? That's another omission.
Allegations in the direction of the municipal decision-makers lacked any basis, said the EZ requests the two mayors Georg and Rupert. Both communities have repeatedly insisted that the temporarily applied solution should be maintained at 70km / h. The EZ reports last twice extensively on the issue; namely on 14 May 2018 and 9/10. June, as directly to residents of the state road came to speak and they expressed their fears. Rupert said these days, they had fought to lift the introduced Tempo 100 scheme, but had no success. The responsibility would therefore not lie with the communities.
A renewed request in the district office, which authority has prompted Tempo 100, was answered by the press office as follows: "Off-site speed is 100 km / h. This may only be deviated from if there is a dangerous situation that is far beyond the usual hazard in road traffic. This is not the case at the point. There used to be a limit of 70km / h. The reason was the bus stop. However, there are new rules for the behavior at bus stops (walking speed), so that the legal basis is eliminated. The order came from the Lower Transport Authority after hearing the police and the State Building Office. "According to recent findings, there is no reason to revise the well over one and a half years existing Tempo 100 arrangement.
By the way, statements by citizens outside of the mentioned online comments have not been made so far, said District Spokeswoman Evelyn. In any case, as far as the Lower Transport Authority is concerned.
