Cycling tragedy in Flensburg: 29-year-old bicyclist gravely hurt in road collision (Polish-French)

On a fateful day, August 25, 2025, a traffic accident occurred at the intersection of Ziegeleistraße/Swinemünder Straße in Flensburg, Germany.

According to the Polizeidirektion Flensburg, the incident involved a 47-year-old driver traveling along Swinemünder Straße and a 29-year-old cyclist who was making his way along Ziegeleistraße. After the cars passed the junction, the driver turned left into Ziegeleistraße, resulting in a collision with the cyclist.

Both the car and the racing bike were towed away for further examination. The driver had to wait at the junction due to several cars using this road.

Emergency services and a doctor were promptly on the scene to provide initial medical treatment to the cyclist. The cyclist suffered injuries to the pelvis and thigh area and was subsequently taken to the hospital. Thankfully, the injuries were severe but non-life-threatening.

The Public Prosecutor's Office in Flensburg was consulted for the investigation. A police accident expert was also called in to help determine the cause of the accident. An expert appointed by the Public Prosecutor's Office of Flensburg for the police accident investigation is currently conducting the investigation, but the name of the expert is not specified in the available information.

Traffic in the direction of Flensburg was temporarily closed during the investigation. The contact details for the Flensburg police department are provided for inquiries: Sandra Otte, 0461 / 484 2010, [email protected].
