Riot on the street: 30-year-old freaks out after accident in Jade!

A scandalous incident in Jade caused a stir on Friday afternoon. There was a rear-end collision on Rönnelstrasse when a 30-year-old man noticed that a 65-year-old in front of him was braking to turn right. But instead of apologizing, the situation escalated completely. First, the younger driver overtook the older driver and then recklessly backed up, intentionally crashing into his car. After he got out, he punched the 65-year-old in the face and kicked him in the leg.

The impetuous man insulted his counterpart and got himself into serious trouble. The police are now investigating dangerous interference in road traffic, bodily harm and insults. An urgent search is also being made for witnesses to the incident who should report to the Nordenham police, as NDR states in a report. Anyone who has witnessed such an aggressive confrontation should definitely come forward to shed light on the matter.

Consequences for the person who caused the accident

The legal consequences for the 30-year-old could be serious. According to German law, negligent bodily harm, which also applies to traffic accidents, can result in significant penalties. As the fine catalog explains, the law in Section 229 StGB provides for fines or even imprisonment. These can last up to three years, depending on the severity of the incident.

The minimum penalties for first-time offenders are usually 30 daily rates, which corresponds to approximately one monthly net salary. In this context, those affected often receive points in Flensburg. The amount of these points is variable, depending on the severity of the violation. In particularly serious cases, there is also a risk of a temporary driving ban.

Driving ban and compensation

The affected road users also have claims for damages and compensation for pain and suffering. Even if the victims do not report the crime, the person who caused the accident may be prosecuted. This may surprise many people, but the principle of legality applies to negligent bodily harm even without reporting it.

After such an incident, it is advisable to seek settlement of the damage as quickly as possible. Handling the situation positively can have a positive impact on the process, especially if the person responsible apologizes and seeks clarification.

It turns out that a small moment of inattention can have significant consequences not only in traffic, but also afterwards. The events in Jade remind us that the streets are not only resounding, but can also create drama.

It remains exciting for further information and current developments on this incident and the legal consequences. We will continue to follow the investigation and report on it.
