The eleven-year-old girl who was murdered on Tuesday in Kirchberg an der Donau (Upper Austria) had to cross a district road on her way to school every day without a speed limit, zebra crossing or lights. There is now criticism of the conditions at the accident site.
Two days after the fatal accident of a student while crossing a street, the consternation in Kirchberg an der Donau is still enormous. Eleven-year-old Luisa wanted to cross the street early in the morning to catch her bus to Niederwaldkirchen.
The student died at the scene of the accident
A 28-year-old driver from Rohrbach was unable to swerve in time and hit the girl, who succumbed to her injuries at the scene of the accident.
No zebra crossing
Amid the sadness, the criticism now comes in the form of a Facebook post. “20 years ago, we as parents started a signature campaign here and raised it through the SPÖ because our first son was taken from this bus stop to primary school and we were always annoyed because there were so many children there in the morning. “Many cars traveled far too soon,” one user posted online.
She criticizes the fact that there is no speed limit and no zebra crossing at the scene of the accident. There aren’t even street lights there. The reason she gives is that responsible politicians said that “you can’t impose restrictions everywhere.”
A restriction must be installed
Gerald Beismann, chairman of the SPÖ in Kirchberg ob der Donau, does not want to comment on the post. However, they absolutely want to stick to the plan to impose a speed limit on the stretch of road in question; The speed limit at the scene of the accident is currently 100 km/h.
