According to the police report, the driver accelerated his motorcycle, the young woman in the passenger seat was unable to hold on sufficiently and fell backwards from the motorcycle onto the road. She was taken to hospital by the emergency services for an evaluation, but was able to leave shortly afterwards with only minor injuries.
The fact that nothing serious happened could be due, among other things, to the fact that she was wearing full protective clothing at the time of the accident, as the police say.
Meanwhile, there was less luck a cyclist who was on the way to the Wasserkuppe. He was seriously injured in a fall.
