Overtaking maneuver failed: two motorcyclists killed in head-on collision
The person who caused the accident, a 20-year-old man from the Dachau district, was traveling from Schöngeising towards Mauern on his Honda motorcycle.
Shortly after the end of Schöngeising, he undertook an overtaking maneuver and moved into the opposite lane.
He probably overlooked the oncoming motorcycle of a 24-year-old man from the Fürstenfeldbruck district.
The two motorcycles collided head-on.
Despite the immediate efforts and quick intervention of first aiders on site, both drivers succumbed to their serious injuries at the scene of the accident.
The local road between Schöngeising and Mauern had to be completely closed for the duration of the accident investigation, until around 5 p.m.
Two rescue helicopters with additional emergency doctors were in action, as were the volunteer fire departments from Schöngeising, Grafrath and Fürstenfeldbruck.
