The U-Bahn tracks at Oberursel’s station are being replaced this week.
Turn right onto the tracks…
One Mercedes driver showed a little too much trust in her satellite navigation equipment on Friday evening (29th November, 2013).
At the corner of the Hohemarkstraße and Kupferhammerweg, the voice said “turn right”, and turn she did, without realising that the Kuperhammerweg starts 20 metres away on the other side of the U-Bahn tracks.
Instead she turned right onto the tracks, grounding the car.
Trains were halted whilst the car was towed back onto the road. The car was slightly damaged but no-one was hurt.
