(Furtwangen Schwarzwald-Baar district July 18, 2021) Motorcycle accident leaves two seriously injured

A motorcyclist caused an accident on Sunday around 2:30 p.m. on federal highway 500. A 57-year-old was traveling with a 56-year-old pillion from Furtwangen towards Kaltenherberg on a Harley-Davidson FL 1. He drove so fast in a right-hand bend that the right crash bar of the heavy motorcycle touched the road. When braking, the machine slipped and landed in a grass verge next to the road.

The driver and passenger suffered serious injuries in the fall and had to be flown to an accident clinic by a rescue helicopter. The motorcycle suffered material damage amounting to around 12,000 euros. The police temporarily closed the federal highway so that the injured could be rescued and treated.
