вereinsin accidents with trams are a serious problem, as other tragedies in Berlin show. Another incident occurred recently in Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg, where an 81-year-old pedestrian was fatally injured in a collision with a tram. The accident occurred on Tuesday afternoon at the Greifswalder Straße and Grellstraße intersection. The older man, who ran over the tracks at red, suffered life -threatening injuries.
