It remains unclear whether the bus driver noticed the incident. While the investigation into the course of the accident is running, the circumstances around the bus are also examined in more detail.

accident sequence and damage

The impact was so violent that the house management was also damaged in the collision. For safety reasons, the electricity in the street was parked as a precaution. A structural engineer should now check the damage to the building in order to estimate the risk of collapse. This shows how serious the effects of such an incident can be - even if it was lucky without personal injury.

A look at similar incidents in the region shows that accidents with agricultural vehicles and in connection with school buses are a sad reality. Less than a year ago, there was a similar event in Nieblum, in which a tractor with manure trailer severely damaged the outer wall of a house. Even then, the residents were brought to safety through the rescue workers and fire brigade quickly, and luckily there were no injuries, such as fireworld.at.

The dangers of agriculture

Agricultural work is not only formative for the region, but also carries considerable risks. According to [agrarheute.com] (https://www.agrarheute.com/management/betriebsfueitung/so-gefaehrlich-grundwirtschaft-hohe-gnelligen- alarming-616552), over 13,000 accidents in agriculture have been recorded, with animal husbandry considered the largest source of danger. Above all, dealing with big cattle, especially with cattle, is often associated with serious accidents. In recent years there have also been fatal accidents in forestry work and plant growing. These figures illustrate how important security measures and education are in agriculture.

The incident in Knesebeck reminds us that mindfulness and safety in road traffic, especially near schools and residential areas, should be top priority. The families in the area are now hoping for rapid education and security measures to avoid such accidents in the future. We can only make our streets safer with common consciousness.
