There were already traffic accidents 80 years ago
02/28/2012
Of course, even in the early days of the automobile there were road accidents, most of which were self-inflicted. We found two particular examples in the ADAC Motorwelt from 1934. In one case, the driver was probably unaware that the train had the right of way; in the other, the bridge construction was simply stronger.
In any case, the pictures are impressive and we didn't want to withhold them from our readers.
All issues of "ADAC-Motorwelt" (including its predecessors "Der Motorfahrer" and "Deutscher Motorradfahrer" from 1903 to 1990, i.e. over 80,000 pages, are available in the Zwischengas archive.
