Eight years after a devastating collision, a cyclist dies at the age of 61.
To what extent does death have anything to do with the accident back then?
The police are investigating.
Munich - A man who was in a
vegetative state for
more than eight years
after a
serious bicycle accident
in Munich * has died.
Whether the death of the 61-year-old was related to the
accident in August 2012 is
currently being checked, the police said.
The man, who died in a clinic last Friday,
collided with another cyclist
in
the Ramersdorf district
and injured himself so badly that he fell
into a coma

Munich: Serious bike crash in August 2012 - due to driving in the wrong direction
Therefore, the
traffic police * are
currently
taking care of
the case again
.
Back then, on Tuesday, August 7, 2012, the man had
ridden
his bike on the
Chiemgaustraße
cycle path towards the
city center at
around 6.30 a.m.
However, the cycle path ends before the railway underpass.
So the man switched to the lane - and then after the underpass he went back onto the cycle lane.
A 19-year-old apprentice was meanwhile on his mountain bike illegally on this cycle path
in the wrong direction
out of town.
Collision between two cyclists in Munich - man dies eight years later
The two cyclists crashed at the underpass!
The
then 52-year-old
fell, hit his head on the roadway and sustained serious injuries.
The man was immediately taken to a clinic.
There, his condition deteriorated noticeably - according to the police, his
life was
already in
danger
at that time
.
The 19-year-old on the mountain bike had only slightly injured his hand in the collision.
However, even after more than eight years, the
consequences of that accident
at the underpass
still haunt him
.
Who is the Radl-Rambo who was involved in the fatal accident in 2020 on Hochstraße in Munich?
