Driver misinterpreted headlight flasher

An accident occured on the Feldbergstrasse last Friday (19th April, 2013) when an 18-year-old driver tried to back out an Audi of a parking space.

The 83-year-old driver of a Citroen was travelling along the road and turned on their full-beam headlights just before he reached the Audi, which the younger driver took to mean he was allowing her to leave the parking space.

The cars collided, causing €1,300 of damage.
